Dear Vinícius,

I have checked that the code is using 4 different GPUs, one for each
pH-REMD replica. Please, find attached below the information shown by the
mdout file.

|------------------- GPU DEVICE INFO --------------------

|

| Task ID: 0

| CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES: 0,1,2,3

| CUDA Capable Devices Detected: 4

| CUDA Device ID in use: 0

| CUDA Device Name: Tesla V100-PCIE-16GB

| CUDA Device Global Mem Size: 16160 MB

| CUDA Device Num Multiprocessors: 80

| CUDA Device Core Freq: 1.38 GHz

|

|--------------------------------------------------------



|---------------- GPU PEER TO PEER INFO -----------------

|

| Peer to Peer support: ENABLED

|

|--------------------------------------------------------





| Conditional Compilation Defines Used:

| MPI

| PUBFFT

| BINTRAJ
