And which one (and with what parameters) is better for the QM/MM
optimization?

Steep almost didn't change anything and I couldn't relax the system as I
wanted.
CG seemed to work fine, but in the end it teared an H-atom from my QM
subsystem.
BFGS could not work with the constraints which are necessary for the QM/MM
calculations in gromacs...
