Hi,

OK, maybe dialanine is smaller than things you've already tested (though it
is surprisingly challenging, as you will see in the enhanced-sampling
literature). Perhaps you can estimate from your CG work how many
independent samples you need for a converged simulation as a function of
simulation degrees of freedom. Then your available compute resources can be
used to estimate an upper bound for the size of a test case.
