I would not suggest using targeted MD for pulling
out a ligand. It is hard to image a way to get that
to work. You should really use it for things specifically
related to RMSD. Otherwise, you might want to try
distance restraints, which are probably much faster.

I am fairly sure that the RMSD code could be made faster,
but again it was not designed for the purpose that
you are using it for and I suggest trying something
different rather than reprogramming it.
