[gmx-users] Replica exchange simulations more than number of processor

Just my 2 cents: REST2 doesn't work. The random walk is much better than REST but the sampling efficiency at low lambda is now poor. Your mileage may vary, but be aware that REST2 is not necessarily going to be useful for all systems.

In addition, using another technique like REST2 may substantially reduce
the numbers of replica's you need. Still, more compute is definitely
recommended if you can get it.
