Hi,

Thanks for the tip. I would further suggest that people consider the
attributes of their network before attempting such a setup. It is possible
to get reasonable performance from multi-node GROMACS using Gigabit
ethernet, but I would expect to have to do a lot of work configuring it.
GROMACS performance is extremely sensitive to communication latency, and
every extra layer of middleware hurts that.
