Thanks Bill,Bob
My system is 57999 atoms with PME uing PMEMD. The system is Compac Tru64
SC45.
FATAL global dynamic memory setup allocation error!
I try a smaller system, 331 atoms, it works
With memory used printed in mdout file:
| Dynamic Memory, Types Used:
| Reals 95863
| Integers 6957
| Nonbonded Pairs Initial Allocation: 3472
Alos I try
unlimit memoryuse
no effects
What is the Dynamic Memory, how it scales with the number of atoms,
Here 331 atoms ~ 100K
How about 57999 atoms ?

Mu -
Are you talking pmemd here, or sander 6, or sander 7? How many atoms?
How
many cpu's? How many processors sharing memory? How much physical
memory
total? You can run a 90906 atom problem in about 79 MB on a single
processor, and since the pairlist is divided when running in parallel,
memory requirements growth will be less than linear in processor count.
Thus, about 25 processes would run in 2 GB on a shared memory machine
(rough
estimate). That is half the memoryuse listed. It is possible, but
unlikely, for weird things to happen with mpi buffering. Without
knowing
more about your problem size and memory configuration, it is not
possible to
determine if it is reasonable for you to be running out of memory.
