Hey Acoot, The “–v” option simply means “verbose”, so mdrun outputs a bit more information (for example a nice finish time estimation) than it would do without “-v”. I doubt that giving a little bit more output to the console will influence the run time significantly. My advice: Just try it out ;)

April 2012 08:19 An: Discussion list for GROMACS users Betreff: [gmx-users] the mdrun "-v" Dear All, For the function of mdrun. will you please introduce the time difference for the whole mdrun with or without "-v"? I suppose with "-v" will need some calculation time, but I am not sure whether the time spent is significant. Cheers, Acoot
