hi all//
I am running simulations of two peptides in a spc-water box. when i take 
a look on the pressur using g_energy i get a for me surprising result 
[see table attached at the end].
my paramters in the mdp-file:
Pcoupl                   = Berendsen
tau_p                    = 1.0
compressibility          = 4.5e-5
ref_p                    = 1.0
i would have expected values that vary around 1, but not that strong ...
any comments?
thanks in advance//
carsten
