And also, gromacs does not seem to use the same switching function as CHARMM. Has it been tested how much this affects replication of the original CHARMM MM energies?

Of course, if accuracy is not in question then performance dominates. I have seen countless reports on this list and elsewhere where small changes in cutoffs lead to wildly incorrect behavior, affecting every force field. Thus, I am always extremely skeptical of such changes. The effects can be subtle but non-negligible.

I would be very interested in reading about some of these reports. I have searched the gromacs forum and I have found similar discussions but never accompanied by actual benchmarks with numbers, or maybe I have not searched carefully enough!
