Hi, you should set one pull group, not 700. The number of atoms in your pull group is 700. Freezing the pull group in x and y direction probably does what you want. Please also consider to upgrade to 4.0.7, which is the most recent stable version. Best, Carsten On Jan 22, 2010, at 7:41 AM, to

Hi, I guess this is caused by the 1-4 interactions. These also contain electrostatic interactions, which are turned off when you turn off the charges, but not by the energygrp_excl option. Berk From: gianfranco.bocchinf...@uniroma2.it To: gmx-users@gromacs.org Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:58:14 +0

Thank you for your reply, Really, I don’t think that the difference come from the 1-4 interactions. I have excluded all the 1-4 interaction involving atoms in the indole group (deleting them from the pairs list). Furthermore, I have added the indole as an energygrps, and checking the 1-4 ener

Yes, but I forgot to say that I got this note that followed: 5.4 % performance was lost because the PME nodes had less work to do than the PP nodes. You might want to decrease the number of PME nodes or decrease the cut-off and the grid spacing. Carla On Fri, Jan 22, 2010 at 1:3

Well, there you go. That message tells you how to improve performance. Changing the number of PME-nodes to improve performance may or may not be doable, depending on the number of processors availvable. On the other hand, 5.4 % performance loss is not that bad in my oppinion. There is a tool f

Hello, I wanted to know, if say my box is 30A (cubic) and if I set my cut-off lengths i.e. rvdw-switch = 0.8 and rvdw =0.9 , does that mean, the simulation will cut-0ff at 9A? Should I be changing that to 1.5nm (to get half the box cut-off)? I am a little confused about that. Thanks.
