we have run lots of ff19SB+OPC simulations (many many microseconds) and
while we do get GPU errors like this sometimes, I don't think it's any more
often than with ff14SB and is fairly rare. Is your system large? You could
send me (off-list) the input for the run that reproducibly crashes and I
could test it. I've seen other reports on the AMber list of the
cudaMemcpy error but without ff19SB, so I'm not sure if it's specific to
the force field. We tend to get it often when we have a GPU failing. So
maybe it will help if I test the same inputs on a different cluster..
