The areas under two arbitrary RDFs are not supposed to be the same, as
RDF are not area-normalized, but normalized to go to 1 for r to
infinity.

Not try to interpret too much in the difference between the RDFs after
one iteration step.
If it does not converge after hundreds of iterations, you should be worried.

It is also important to note that the convergence is defined very
differently through out the literature.
VOTCA supports different measures incl. the l1 and l2 norm. The latter
was using in the original VOTCA publication.

What is your question actually?
