[gmx-users] MD Simulation Time Is Slow

*Hi,*

I am using gromacs and I  would like to enhance my MD simulations time run
on the servers. I execute the following command:

gmx mdrun -nt 24 -s full.tpr -e full1.edr -o full1.trr -c p4iw_full1.gro -g
flog1.log

For 100 ps it took about 1 hr (as I can see from the log file)

       Time:    47060.494     3923.274     1199.5

                        1h05:23

                 (ns/day)    (hour/ns)

Performance:        2.202       10.898

Please let me know if I can make the run faster? Since I am going to do MD
simulations run for 100 ns. (Protein with 750 amino acids in water)

I appreciate your help and time,
A. Dojjan
