[gmx-users] Use NVT to mimic NVE

 Firstly, what are the possible errors/artifacts caused by masking "the
energy leakage problem with the thermostat" in this case?

Secondly, are there any other mdp setting that I can try to make the mixed
precision gromacs NVE run have conserved energy over 100 ns ? (and... is it
because of some errors that I made in my systems that make the NVE run not
conserved in energy?)

The NVE has the following statistics.

Statistics over 2747281 steps [ 0.0000 through 1373.6400 ps ], 4 data sets
All statistics are over 274729 points
