You also need to use sander.MPI for parallel runs. You should also realize
that if this is a gigabit ethernet cluster rather than a 'real' interconnect
like infiniband you will likely be running much slower on 16 cpus that you
would on say 4. You should benchmark here to be sure. You might also want to
consider building PMEMD which if what you are simulating falls within what
it can do will likely be much faster in parallel.
All the best
