Re: [gmx-users] GPU problem
Hi Albert, I think using -nt flag (-nt=16) with mdrun would solve your problem.

Re: [gmx-users] GPU problem
-nt is mostly a backward compatibility option and sets the total number of threads (per rank). Instead, you should set both -ntmpi (or -np with MPI) and -ntomp. However, note that unless a single mdrun uses *all* cores/hardware threads on a node, it won't pin the threads to cores. Failing to pin threads will lead to considerable performance degradation; just tried and depending on how (un)lucky the thread placement and migration is, I get 1.5-2x performance degradation with running two mdrun-s on a single dual-socket node without pining threads. My advise is (yet again) that you should check the http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Acceleration_and_parallelization wiki page, in particular the section on how to run simulations. If things are not, clear please ask for clarification - input and constructive criticism should help us improve the wiki. We have been patiently pointing everyone to the wiki, so asking without reading up first is neither productive nor really fair.

RE:[gmx-users] GPU problem
Dear All or anyone, A stupid question. Is there an script anyone knows of to convert a 53a6ff from .top redirects to the gromacs/top directory to something like a ligand .itp? This is usefull at the moment. Example: [bond] 6 7 2 gb_5 to [bonds] ; ai aj fu c0, c1, ... 6 7 2 0.139 1080.0 0.139 1080.0 ; C CH for everything (a protein/DNA complex) inclusive of angles, dihedrials? Ive been playing with some of the gromacs user supplied files, but nothing yet.
