Re: mm_gbsa error message

Hi,

normal mode calculations are rather memory consuming. For a 5000 atom
system, you already need about 900 MByte of memory.

You have to increase the MAXMEMX variable in the sizes.h file in
$AMBERHOME/src/nmode and then recompile nmode.

Also be aware that the DRMS value given in the mm_pbsa.in file in the
example directory $AMBERHOME/src/mm_pbsa/Examples/04_MMPBSA_Nmode is set
to 0.1 to save computation time for demonstration purposes. For real
applications, this value needs to be set to at least 10^-4 or even
smaller.

Best regards

Holger
