[gmx-users] intel grompp with pathscale mdrun

[Rasale, Anupama]

Hi Chris,
	You can also try with open64. Let us know in case you face any issues in compiling and running. We will be glad to help you.

Thanks
Anupama

Thank you Matthew.

your suggestion for the hanging .o compilation sounds good. I didn't  
try it because in the end the intel compiler produced the fastest  
executables in any event.

For those interested, here are my benchmarking speeds for one of my  
simulation systems (270,000 atoms) on 48 cores of an AMD magny-cours  
cluster at 2.1 GHz. I have no idea why the intel icc compiler  
outperforms the pathscale and pgi compilers on AMD computers, but that  
seems to be the case.

intel icc 12.0.5.220 = 3.733 ns/day
intel icc 12.0.5.220 with -msse3 = 3.765 ns/day
pathscale 4.0.12.1 = 3.467 ns/day
pgi 11.8 = 3.092 ns/day
pgi 11.8 with -tp istanbul -fast = 3.156 ns/day

Again, thank you,
Chris.

As far as compilation hanging...maybe hand-compile that .o with less
aggressive optimization flags, then try "make" again?
