Re: [AMBER] 4.5 fold increase in memory consumption for nmr restraints going from amber14 to amber16

Dear Amber Developers,


I would be very glad to see this bug fixed. I am at the moment

wasting resourced due to this fivefold increase in memory that still

happens in amber 18. It means I have to use more graphics cards

for a simulation then really necessary.

The bug is probably just due to a mistake in one of the later amber 14
updates and

should not be hard to track down, I hope.


Best regards
Paul Westphälinger
