Hi, Maybe it's a good idea to have ld-seed=-1 as a default if that's not already the case. Ran. Berk Hess wrote: > Hi, > > I don't know why I did not add checks for ld-seed before. > Now grompp gives a note when continutation=yes and ld-seed!=-1. > > tpbconv will now generate a new ld-seed when re

Hi, I don't know why I did not add checks for ld-seed before. Now grompp gives a note when continutation=yes and ld-seed!=-1. tpbconv will now generate a new ld-seed when reading a trajectory (but you should not use tpbconv, use a checkpoint file instead). But yesterday I forgot to tell that th

Hi, In this manner you use the same random seed and thus noise for all parts. In most cases this will not lead to serious artifacts with SD, but you can never be sure. When checkpoints are used, you do not repeat random numbers. This also gives a difference between serial and parallel in 4.0. Wit

Hi, SD will tau_t=0.1 will make your dynamics a lot slower. I don't see a reason why there should be a difference between serial and parallel. Are all simulations single runs, or do you do restarts? Did you compare the temperatures to check if there is no strong energy loss or heating and if t
