[gmx-users] Regarding Performance Tuning for GROMACS

2014-07-17 Thread vidhya sankar
Hai Justin Thank you for your Previous Reply

Is there is Any Restrictions in usage of Number of Processor (in Clustering ) 
for Performance Tuning in gromacs 4 and After Version. especially when i use 
PME 

When I surf I got the Following Link 


http://www.mpibpc.mpg.de/262136/PosterHuenfeld2009.pdf




Please give me the Brief Detail and Guidance.

Thanks in Advance

Benchmarking and tuning should always be done.  There are limits to the number 
of processors, but they are dependent upon system size and related to DD. 
Generally Gromacs can scale to a few hundred atoms per core.

Hi,

Benchmarking and tuning is generally quite machine-specific, but you
could have a look at this great work done by Carsten Kutzner on
SuperMUC:

Note that depending on the machine (especially network), simulation
system (as well as the desired minimum parallel efficiency =
definition of "scale"), as Carsten also showed, the limit can be even
lower!
