Dear David,
here are the results for two runs (full.mdp in speptide folder of  
GROMACS tutorial) with 16 chips / 32 tasks on BG/L,

without FORTRAN:


                NODE (s)   Real (s)      (%)
        Time:    161.000    161.000    100.0
                        2:41
                (Mnbf/s)   (GFlops)   (ns/day)  (hour/ns)
Performance:     12.529      3.034      5.366      4.472


with FORTRAN:

                NODE (s)   Real (s)      (%)
        Time:    155.000    155.000    100.0
                        2:35
                (Mnbf/s)   (GFlops)   (ns/day)  (hour/ns)
Performance:     13.021      3.143      5.574      4.306

Best regards,
Ivano
