Hello:

   I am using the following settings for output file:

dt              = 0.002         ; Time-step (ps)
nsteps          = 2500000000    ; Number of steps to run (0.002 * 500000 = 1 ns)

; Parameters controlling output writing
nstxout         = 5000000               ; Write coordinates to output .trr file
every 2 ps
nstvout         = 5000000               ; Write velocities to output .trr file
every 2 ps
nstfout         = 0
nstxtcout       = 50000
nstenergy       = 500000        ; Write energies to output .edr file every 2 ps
nstlog          = 500000        ; Write output to .log file every 2 ps


and I obtained following warnings from grompp:

NOTE 2 [file md.mdp]:
   This run will generate roughly 2791985478365075968 Mb of data


however, when I set
nstxout=0
nstvout=0
nstoout=0

I obtained following informations:

This run will generate roughly -9066 Mb of data

why it file size is negative? Moreover, my nstxout is very large, I don't know
why the file is so big and no matter how did I change nstxout, nstvout, the
files size doesn't change at all. it always claimed:


   This run will generate roughly 2791985478365075968 Mb of data


This looks like a pretty clear bug to me, especially the negative file size, which cannot possibly make sense. What version of Gromacs is this?
