Hello Nicholus,
This is not that easy to answer to your question since the performance of
your calculation depends on many factors, including:
- the number of processors you are using;
- their frequency;
- the hardware/software used by processors to communicate;
- the number of particles in your system;
- whether you are using PME or not;
- ...
I made a test recently with a 30000 atoms system on a single Intel proc at
2.4 GHz (cutoff at 0.8 nm with PME). The OS was Fedora 10 and I used the
GNU compiler. I was able to compute 0.41 ns per day which is not
particularly great but sufficient to setup, minimize and equilibrate a
system (in bulk water).
Cheers,
Nicolas
