[gmx-users] How many ps needs a simulation?

[jahanshah ashkani]

Thanks,
  In fact I have a sequence with 1277 residue. It is stable even in 50ps. But when I continue to simulation my pc is restarted in 40000 steps, automaticly. I should say that this step needs about 100 h time.

How long is a piece of string?

Seriously though, depends on what you are trying to observe and
determine.

Also check the literature to see what is currently being done with
similar systems and properties.

"Typically" it will be at least an order of magnitude longer than the
process you wish to observe. But what is possible and what you want can
be very too different things.
