Hi all, I have encountered the same problem. With this command: ./configure --with-fft=mkl --prefix=/path/gmx-4.5.3 --enable-mpi "make mdrun" works well When i used the same option with gmx 4.5.4 ./configure --with-fft=mkl --prefix=/path/gmx-4.5.4 --enable-mpi "make mdrun" did not work. The com

Hi Adam, because some time ago I was involved in a rigid-body MD project, I am interested to known if you are following a published or known method. I do not know your rigid-body algorithm, however I would suggest you to take care on rotations, because they are not a simple task. Good luck L

Hi Chris, thank for the suggestions, in the previous mail there is a mistake because couple-moltype = SOL (for solvent) and not "Protein_chaim_P". Now the problem of the load balance seems reasonable, because the water box is large ~9.0 nm. However the problem exist and the performance loss is v
