The jargon is this:
"equilibration" is something you do first (at each value of lambda), but
do not use for analysis.
"production" is the part of the trajectory after the equilibration phase,
which is used to generate estimates of free energies, etc. The production
phase uses the restart file from the equilibration phase as a starting
point.
