GPU acceleration you must change it to cutoff-scheme = verlet, which has become the new default in version 5.0. The behaviour of older GROMACS versions (before 4.6) corresponds to cutoff-scheme = group, while in order to use The new neighbor structure required the introduction of a new variable called "cutoff-scheme" in the mdp file. GROMACS uses both CPUs and GPUs it relies on a reasonable balance between CPU and GPU performance. GROMACS will automatically use any GPUs it finds. The top part of any log file will describe the configuration,Īnd in particular whether your version has GPU support compiled in. Reconfirming the results of such tools with independent methods is always a good idea.


GROMACS comes with a large selection of flexible tools for trajectory analysis.Since GROMACS 4.6, we have excellent CUDA-based GPU acceleration on GPUs that have Nvidia compute capability >= 2.0 (e.g.GROMACS provides extremely high performance compared to all other programs.(that usually dominate simulations) many groups are also using it for research on non-biological systems, e.g. It is primarily designed for biochemical molecules like proteins, lipids and nucleic acids that have a lot of complicated bonded interactions,īut since GROMACS is extremely fast at calculating the nonbonded interactions GROMACS is a versatile package to perform molecular dynamics for systems with hundreds to millions of particles. 3.3.1.1 Long-range interactions with PME.3.3.1 MPI processes / Slurm tasks / Domain decomposition.
