Hi, I am testing the dhfr benchmarks with gromacs 4.5.2 1. for the benchmarks: dhfr-solv-RF-1nm.bench and dhfr-solv-RF-2nm.bench, set the steps = 10000, The GPU version running results shows as following: ./mdrun-gpu Pre-simulation ~15s memtest in progress...done, no errors detected starting mdrun 'Protein in water' 10000 steps, 20.0 ps. Writing final coordinates. Back Off! I just backed up confout.gro to ./#confout.gro.2# Post-simulation ~15s memtest in progress...done, no errors detected OpenMM run - timing based on wallclock. NODE (s) Real (s) (%) Time: 90.796 90.796 100.0 1:30 (Mnbf/s) (MFlops) (ns/day) (hour/ns) Performance: 0.000 0.060 19.034 1.261 gcq#100: "Jesus Can't Save You, Though It's Nice to Think He Tried" (Black Crowes) The CPU version running results shows as following: ./mdrun Writing final coordinates. Back Off! I just backed up confout.gro to ./#confout.gro.3# Average load imbalance: 4.7 % Part of the total run time spent waiting due to load imbalance: 2.7 % Steps where the load balancing was limited by -rdd, -rcon and/or -dds: X 0 % Y 0 % Z 0 % Parallel run - timing based on wallclock. NODE (s) Real (s) (%) Time: 86.176 86.176 100.0 1:26 (Mnbf/s) (GFlops) (ns/day) (hour/ns) Performance: 741.634 35.849 20.054 1.197 gcq#0: Thanx for Using GROMACS - Have a Nice Day The gpu version looks slower than cpu version, does it make sense? Is there anyway I could optimize? 2. For the CPU benchmark dhfr-impl-1nm.bench, when I run : ./mdrun Back Off! I just backed up md.log to ./#md.log.9# Reading file topol.tpr, VERSION 4.5.1-dev-20100917-b1d66 (single precision) Starting 16 threads ------------------------------------------------------- Program mdrun, VERSION 4.5.2 Source code file: domdec.c, line: 6428 Fatal error: There is no domain decomposition for 16 nodes that is compatible with the given box and a minimum cell size of 1.02425 nm Change the number of nodes or mdrun option -rcon or -dds or your LINCS settings Look in the log file for details on the domain decomposition For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors ------------------------------------------------------- Thanx for Using GROMACS - Have a Nice Day Where could I modify this nodes#? 3. for CPU benchmark dhfr-impl-inf.bench I modified cpu-imp-RF-inf.mdp: nsteps 10000 grompp -f cpu-imp-RF-inf.mdp -o topol.tpr it will show: NOTE 1 [file cpu-imp-RF-inf.mdp]: The Berendsen thermostat does not generate the correct kinetic energy distribution. You might want to consider using the V-rescale thermostat. Generated 2278 of the 2278 non-bonded parameter combinations Generating 1-4 interactions: fudge = 0.5 Generated 2278 of the 2278 1-4 parameter combinations Excluding 3 bonded neighbours molecule type 'Protein' turning all bonds into constraints... NOTE 2 [file topol.top, line 23568]: System has non-zero total charge: -1.100000e+01 GB parameter(s) missing or negative for atom type 'H0' ------------------------------------------------------- Program grompp, VERSION 4.5.1 Source code file: grompp.c, line: 870 Fatal error: Can't do GB electrostatics; the forcefield is missing 1 values for atomtype radii, or they might be negative . For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors ------------------------------------------------------- "Everybody's Good Enough For Some Change" (LIVE) and when I run ./mdrun the steps still -1, infinite time How could I genete the right topol.tpr? Thanks a lot. YY
