Hi Eric, I think you'll be _very_ happy with Gromacs4, or the current CVS version if you want to test that :-) One problem is that "relative scaling" is a rather pointless measure, since it will be better the slower the code is on a single CPU (less time spent in communication). Our paral

Howdy, We are bringing a one rack (1024 node) IBM Blue Gene/L system online. I've been tasked with compiling Gromacs for the Blue Gene. We have the XL compilers installed (blrts_xlc / mpixlc, etc), so I'll be using those rather than GNU. Has anyone on here successfully cross compiled Gromac
