[gmx-users] mdrun -nice integer

[Nuno Azoia]

Hi

"integer" means number, but not decimal. You can choose 2 or 3, but you 
can not choose 2.5 or 2.2

The nicevalue value is one way of measure the priority of your process. 
You can choose any value between -20 and 19. A processe with nice value 
= -20 it's very high priority and with nice value = 19 it's very low 
priority. Check your system processes to check the nice values of each one.
