Why does the solvatebox command result in an initial density of ~0.74 g/cc?
When I run a system solvated in this manner under constant pressure (1 atm)
it equillibrates to ~1 g/cc (expected water density at 1 atm). This also
results in the shrinking of my periodic box by about 5 Angstroms in all 3
dimensions. If I want about 10 A of clearance on all sides of my solute, is
the only way to correct this situation to initially solvate with 12.5 A
clearance?
