Hi, 1) I don't think you can accurately predict how much time one simulation will take, But complexity of the algorithm is O(N^2), so you can some information from this. 2) In "controls" tab, there is a field called "restart_mode". It is default to "from_scratch", but you can change it to "restart". The files should be in "outdir".
