I suppose in retrospect that I could simply use a single processor which I

Or just use OpenMP parallelization.  Any time you drastically change the
size of the system, this will be the case.


Is DD treated differently if you run MPI or OpenMP parallelization? If
so, how? I don't recall reading that in the docs and I always assumed
that DD worked distributing one domain per thread (be it OpenMP or
MPI).


There are as many DD cells as there are (thread-)MPI processes. These can be further subdivided into multiple OpenMP threads. What I was talking about above is the use of only OpenMP, e.g.

mdrun -ntmpi 1 -nt X

There is no use of DD in this case.
