Hi,

I use
               grompp -f nvt.mdp -c em.gro -p box.6.top -o nvt.tpr
               mpirun -np 8 mdrun_mpi -deffnm nvt

and get

  NOTE: The number of threads is not equal to the number of (logical) cores
       and the -pin option is set to auto: will not pin thread to cores.
       This can lead to significant performance degradation.
       Consider using -pin on (and -pinoffset in case you run multiple jobs).

So, I fix it as  mpirun -np 8 mdrun_mpi -deffnm nvt -pinoffset

is it right?


No. The -pinoffset option takes an integer argument to define the first logical core to be used. It is only relevant in the case that multiple jobs are using the same set of nodes.
