Thanks, Ross.
Actually, I like this idea. Regarding scaling, though: do you know how
well PMEMD scales on over 1024 processors compared to NAMD? I keep
hearing that NAMD is considerably faster at these cpu numbers..
If the scaling is comparable, I'd certainly try to do a local install
(and could use your help in that case).
Thanks again
