[gmx-users] unusually long run required

[Jaimin Shah]

Dear Dr. Spoel,

As per you instruction, I set the time step of 0.002 ps in the pr.mdp file
and nstxout = 250000. That necessitated setting the no. of steps to
(nstep) to 1250000. Upon mdrunning, I get the message that the run will be
completed in July 2006. Am I right in doing the settings?

However, I thought that if I want a conformation extracted at every 500
ps, then nstep should be equal to 5. Setting it that way does not give me
any .trr file.

Thanking you,

Sincerely,
