Dear amber users,

I have installed amber10 and pmemd in altix4700.
All the installation went well without error after guidance from amber mailing list.

If I run sander.MPI in amber10, it runs fine, but if I run pmemd it run very slow. I run my script not using PBS but directly.


Here I give my *.in file and the *.out file contents.
