Thanks for the reply. I used following command to extract first frame that has all the surfectants ( as suggested by first step for characterizing micelle clustering).
   trjconv -f a.xtc -o a_cluster.gro -dump 0 -pbc cluster Here is the output I got:COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19526  Isq = 12671033.000COM:    0.000     0.000     0.000  iter = 19527  Isq = 12628369.000COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19528  Isq = 12671033.000COM:    0.000     0.000     0.000  iter = 19529  Isq = 12628369.000COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19530  Isq = 12671033.000COM:    0.000     0.000     0.000  iter = 19531  Isq = 12628369.000COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19532  Isq = 12671033.000COM:    0.000     0.000     0.000  iter = 19533  Isq = 12628369.000COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19534  Isq = 12671033.000COM:    0.000     0.000     0.000  iter = 19535  Isq = 12628369.000COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19536  Isq = 12671033.000COM:    0.000     0.000     0.000  iter = 19537
  Isq = 12628369.000COM:    0.000     0.000    19.999  iter = 19538  Isq = 12671033.000
looks like lsq is only fluctuating between two numbers and the program is in an infinte loop.

So what command did you give, what output did you get, and does the command make sense with respect to your trajectory contents?
