If I remember right, minimizing a ~3500 atom protein on a single R14000
cpu to a rms gradient < 10^-4 kcal/(mol A) took about 6-7 hours using
the conj. grad. method in sander. Calculating vibrational entropies on
an Itanium2 (?) using a 64 bit version of nmode needed about 2GB of
memory and took about 45 min. So I'd say that your suggestion above is
doable.

Currently, no belly groups can be specified via the mm_pbsa.pl script.

Best regards
