Re: [AMBER] reasonable GIST griddim values

Hi,

So I didn't write that tutorial, but it sounds like it tries to find
grid dimensions for a 0.5 Ang. spacing. So the dimensions you got are
larger since presumably your system is larger than the tutorial
system. The issue you may run into is that 750^3 voxels will require
about 1.6 GB per grid (of which GIST uses several) so you might run
out of memory. If that's the case, you may want to try and focus on
particular regions of your solute.
