Thank you for the feedback.  Fair warning, I'm more of a system administrator 
than a regular gromacs user.  What is it that I should be focused on, and more 
importantly how do I find the bottleneck?  Gromacs does recommend using 
AVX2_256, but I was unable to get Gromacs to build using that.  Here is more of 
the log file:

If that's not helpful, I would need more specifics on what part of the log file 
would be.  Failing that, if anyone could recommend some good documentation for 
optimizing performance I would greatly appreciate it, thank you!
