Hello, gmx-users,I tried to energy minimize a lipidbilayer consisting of
32 lipids(16 up and 16 down) with two water layers(428 up and 428 down).
my em.mdp is like this:

title                    = 
cpp                      = /lib/cpp 
include                  = 
define                  = -DFLEXIBLE
constraints              = none ;h-bonds
lincs_iter               = 4

; RUN CONTROL PARAMETERS = 
integrator               = l-bfgs

tinit                    = 0
dt                       = 0.2  ; ps
nsteps                   = 6000

nstxtcout                               = 100     ; pos to xtc file

nstlist                                 = 5
ns_type                                 = grid
rlist                                           = 0.7
coulombtype                             = PME
rcoulomb                                        = 0.7
vdw-type                                        = Cut-off
rvdw                                            = 0.7
fourierspacing                  = 0.095 ; default to 0.12
fourier_nx                              = 0
fourier_ny                              = 0
fourier_nz                              = 0
pme_order                               = 4
ewald_rtol                              = 1e-5
optimize_fft                    = yes

; ENERGY MINIMIZATION OPTIONS = 
emtol                                           = 0.00001       ; default to 100
emstep                                  = 0.5           ; default to 0.01
nstcgsteep                              = 1000

The em is done using double-precision gromacs program,and the out put is
like this:

Stepsize too small, or no change in energy.
Converged to machine precision,
but not to the requested precision Fmax < 1e-05

writing lowest energy coordinates.

Low-Memory BFGS Minimizer converged to machine precision in 7 steps,
but did not reach the requested Fmax < 1e-05.
Potential Energy  =  1.25811048952284e+15
Maximum force     =  5.23956606456297e+17 on atom 483
Norm of force     =  6.77707038974525e+15

How can I prevent it from converging to machine precision? Is there any
method to change the standard of machine precision?
Any suggestion will be appreciated , thanks a lot.
