I don't have any domain decomposition information like that in my
log file. That's worrisome. The only other information I could
find about PME and Ewald and this set of lines:
Table routines are used for coulomb: TRUE
Table routines are used for vdw: FALSE
Will do PME sum in reciprocal space.

Why does it say it will do PME on one line, then ordinary Ewald later?

domain decomposition
There are: 12800 Atoms
Max number of connections per atom is 63
Total number of connections is 286400
Max number of graph edges per atom is 6
Total number of graph edges is 24800
More useful information is contained at the very top of the
.log file, after the citations. An example from one of my own
runs is:
Linking all bonded interactions to atoms
There are 2772 inter charge-group exclusions,
will use an extra communication step for exclusion forces for PME
The initial number of communication pulses is: X 2 Y 1
The initial domain decomposition cell size is: X 1.05 nm Y 1.58 nm
The maximum allowed distance for charge groups involved in
interactions is:
non-bonded interactions 1.400 nm
(the following are initial values, they could change due to
box deformation)
two-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 1.400 nm
multi-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 1.054 nm
atoms separated by up to 5 constraints (-rcon) 1.054 nm
When dynamic load balancing gets turned on, these settings
will change to:
The maximum number of communication pulses is: X 2 Y 2
The minimum size for domain decomposition cells is 0.833 nm
The requested allowed shrink of DD cells (option -dds) is: 0.80
The allowed shrink of domain decomposition cells is: X 0.79 Y 0.53
The maximum allowed distance for charge groups involved in
interactions is:
non-bonded interactions 1.400 nm
two-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 1.400 nm
multi-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 0.833 nm
atoms separated by up to 5 constraints (-rcon) 0.833 nm
Making 2D domain decomposition grid 9 x 6 x 1, home cell index

Also, the output under "DOMAIN DECOMPOSITION STATISTICS" (at
the bottom of the file) would be useful. Also look for any
notes about performance lost due to imbalance, waiting for
PME, etc. These provide very detailed clues about how your
system was treated.
