Oops, I forgot that.
It got a bit late last night, I get I am still not fully recovered.

But the 1024 grid dimension is not required.
Separate PME nodes should be used, which means that one can probably
use the same fourier grid as for smaller numbers of processors.
Although the pme code still runs slightly faster when the grid dimensions
are a multiple of the number of pme nodes. But increases the grid dimensions
will often be more costly than just using the normal optimal grid dimensions.
