Hello,
Could Berk or someone else answer my question regarding the new "nstlist=-1" 
option in gmx4? In my understanding, the algorithm for this option is the one 
used in DLPOLY/LAMMPS. However, When I was trying two gromacs runs with 
"nstlist=-1" and "nstlist=1", I found the speeds were basically the same. Isn't 
this automatic nblist checking supposed to be faster than updating the nblist 
every step? I also did similar tests on LAMMPS for the same system and found 
the speed for automatical updating was several times faster. As a result, 
although Gromacs is about 60% faster if we choose nstlist=1,  it's much slower 
than LAMMPS if we choose the automatic nblist updating. 
Thanks in advance for any ideas about it.
Lanyuan Lu
