[gmx-users] Efficiently running multiple simulations

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

That doesn't make any sense unless someone else is on your node :-)
Otherwise, maybe there's no pinning actually active? Try mpirun -np 8
mdrun_mpi -multi 8 -ntomp 1 -pin on -gpu_id 01234567 and look at the core
usage. There should be 8 empty cores and no movement between them.
