Dear Mark:

Thanks for your reply and sorry for my less info.

Here is the configuration line I used:
module load fftw/2.1.5.1
module load libxml2
CXX=CC CC=cc F77=ftn MPICC=cc LIBS="$XML2_LIBDIR -L/usr/X11/lib64" ./ configure --enable-mpi --enable-double --enable-fortran --prefix=$HOME/ gmx/para --disable-nice --with-fft=fftw2 --program-suffix=_mpi

Also, I searched the maillist and added ddorder in the mdrun line, but that doesn't seem to help much. aprun -n 128 $gmxdir/mdrun_mpi -deffnm npt_02 -g npt_02.log -ddorder cartesian -npme 32

The system is a membrane protein and I'm using berger lipid/OPLS-AA force filed.

Thanks
Bin

Dear all:

I was trying to build gromacs 4.0 on a cray-xt4 machine, the same one as the benchmark in the gromacs4 paper (). However, my timing for a similar system, ~100,000 atoms, is almost 3 times slower than in the paper. For
example, I only got ~25 ns/day with 128 cpus. So is there any special
flags, or tricks I can use during the configuration for detailed tuning?

Probably. You've made it hard to help you when you haven't provided (at least) your configure command, compiler and version, mdrun command line and simulation system composition.
