Could you tell how can I get rid of following warning?


WARNING 1 [file test.top, line 263]:
  The bond in molecule-type BMI between atoms 10 C10 and 23 H23 has an
  estimated oscillational period of 1.2e-03 ps, which is less than 5 times
  the time step of 1.0e-03 ps.
  Maybe you forgot to change the constraints mdp option.
