You can set these to any values you want, of course under the caveat that
you are effectively throwing data away so it really comes down to what you
want to learn and the timescales that occurs on. An understanding of
statistical mechanics will help you here.
Typically I use values in the range of ntwx = 1000 and ntpr = 1000 with
ntwr=10000. You might also want to consider using netcdf binary trajectories
(check the manual) since this will reduce the file sizes somewhat. Beyond
that, buy lots of disk. Note you can always post process the files to strip
out additional frames if you want. What you can't do of course is put frames
back in since this information was thrown away.
All the best
Ross
