[gmx-users] Scaling on superclusters

[Florian Haberl]

Hi,

has anyone been tried to run gromacs on some more cpus, let me say > 100 cpus 
up to 1000  ( for example on a sgi altix, Itanium-2 with numalink). Will 
there be still scaling or will there be a limit by  the non parallel part of 
gromacs, and where will there be this limit?

Other question is which test system or even useful system can there be taken, 
cause this rather small once from the benchmark will not work.  

Greetings,

Florian
