ok. the relative ordering is not very important for me, but it could...
this all means that if i perform the same simulation several times (e.g.
i have 1ns chunks that i repeat till i am satisfied with the results), i
should shuffle only in the very first run.
if i do it in every run, what happens if i load several such
trajectories to,e.g., vmd program? on the same number of processors it
might remain the same, however if the number of processors change, will
then atom/residue numbers be in disagreement in different chunks of the
whole trajectory?

so, in my case, i shouldn't use sort at all to keep the ordering the same?

looking forward to it :)
