Re: [gmx-users] Benching against different compilers - Help needed

2006-04-29 Thread Jones de Andrade
Hi All.

Well, first of all, I would like to thank a lot David for all the help
he gave me up to now. I don't know how to thank for so much help
neither how to apologize for bothering you this much.

Up to now, I could finally compile it with Portland, in both single and
double precision version. But, on the other hand, while the single
precision works properly, the double precision fails in some tests,
like the "mixed" test on the "tutor" directory. It yelds me the
following error message:

By the way: this test runs properly and without any error in both
(single and double precision) compilations with GCC, and in the single
precision compilation with Portland.  :(

Does anybody have any idea of this kind of error? Is it a known issue, someone has came across this kind of behavior before?

Thanks a lot everybody for all and any help in advance! ;)

No.

RE: [gmx-users] Change default "nice" option for mdrun (was: Can notfind file: topol.tpr)

2006-04-29 Thread Guillem Plasencia

Sorry, that was a silly mistake. Here in Spain we use commas as decimal separator, so i thought 3,256 ps/day was indeed 459 times less than 1494 ps/day.
Thank you !--
