Well, most setting can just be changed in the build tree and rerunning cmake build trigger a rebuild, e.g.: $ cmake path/to/source -DGMX_DOUBLE=OFF -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/my/install/path; make install -j; cmake .-DGMX_DOUBLE=ON; make install -j; However, I recommend that you do your builds outside the source tree in separate build directories - or at least in separate directories in the source tree - and just use the same CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX for every build. > > One concern is that each time I run cmake, it will download fftw and the > regression tests. If you want to do regression tests of multiple builds, to avoid the downloading, you should download the regressiontests tarball manually and just point cmake to it instead of having it download every time. While you'll need a different FFTW build for double precision, you are right that single precision MPI vs thread-MPI builds would not need a different FFTW. If you want to avoid this (IMHO minor) overhead, compile FFTW manually and just point CMake to it (via CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH).
