[gmx-users] Cuda CC 2.0 restrictions

[Mirco Wahab]

I've run into a problem with an older card (GTX-580)
which is CC 2.0. On a larger box size, mdrun stops
with:

    Fatal error:
    Watch out, the input system is too large to simulate!
    The number of nonbonded work units (=number of super-clusters)
    exceeds themaximum grid size in x dimension (86276 > 65535)!


This seems to refer to the CUDA "grid of thread blocks per dimension",
limitation specific for CC below 3.0 (I know this system worked already
on a CC 3.0 device).

My question: can this grid count calculated by mdrun be "manipulated"
somehow by mdp options (nstlist, rvdw, rlist)?

Thanks,

M.
