Hi Y,
That problem is very usual. I think that your problem is you are working
with the highest value for dt using shake. If shake does not respond well
so dt has to get smaller. If I were you I put a smaller value for dt and a
higher for nstlim in order to have the same simulationīs total time.
Good Luck!
