[AMBER] Optimization problem

Hi,

I performed a 5ns MD with sander on a system with about 30'000 atoms and
no periodic conditions.
Everything it's fin along the dynamic.
After that I extract, with ptraj, the average structure of the last 50ps
of the MD.
I try to optimize this structure and I give a drms at 0.05. But the RMS
don't converge to this value. I have a minimum value at something like
0.2...
I tried to just use the conjugate gradient method or just the steepest
descent or a mix of the two but I have always the same problem.

Do you have any idea about a strategy I can adopt to better optimize my
structure.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance for your propositions and your help.

Regards,
Daniel
