Re: [AMBER] RDF for dendrimer

Hi,

Hai's advice on upgrading is probably your best bet. The 'radial'
command can be very time consuming since many distances (and in this
case imaged ones) need to be calculated each frame, so you may want to
use the OpenMP-parallelized version of cpptraj (cpptraj.OMP) as well.
