[gmx-developers] GROMACS uses cases with 50-2K atoms

Hi,

I don't think we have much else in that range.

I would use water boxes of different size. They don't have bonded 
interactions, so you don't test everything, but it is anyhow unrealistic 
to use a single thread, as synchronization between threads and cache 
sharing have large effects on the performance of GROMACS.

Cheers,

Berk
