You can plot box vectors from the .edr file.  That will give you their values 
and show trends in the data.

This outcome suggests that your box likely has stabilized.  You should still 
plot the vectors to understand what's going on.  You also need to assess whether 
or not this density is acceptable as an evaluation of your physical model of the 
system.
