Hi all,
I've been getting two questions about APBS from a few people, so I thought
I'd send the answers here:
1) Does APBS take a lot of memory?
APBS can certainly take a lot of memory. In addition, my plugin sets up a
grid that's a little finer than the APBS default (more grid points ==
better calculation, but more memory). You can point my plugin at APBS's
version of psize.py for a grid setup that'll use less memory, and I'll add
some more options in the next version of the plugin that'll make it easier
to set up a coarser grid.
2) Does it work on a Mac?
My plugin should work with Macs just fine. And Nathan Baker just posted
this to the APBS list:

So it sounds like it should be much easier to set things up now!
Thanks,
