Ran into this today with PRCG 14523 (433, 0, 24) where it kept failing with a CPU configuration of 11 or 12, reduced it down to 4 and it seems to have unblocked itself.

Code: Select all

Code: Select all

Initializing Domain Decomposition on 10 ranks
Dynamic load balancing: auto
Will sort the charge groups at every domain (re)decomposition
Initial maximum inter charge-group distances:
    two-body bonded interactions: 0.425 nm, LJ-14, atoms 1187 1195
  multi-body bonded interactions: 0.425 nm, Proper Dih., atoms 1187 1195
Minimum cell size due to bonded interactions: 0.467 nm
Maximum distance for 7 constraints, at 120 deg. angles, all-trans: 1.138 nm
Estimated maximum distance required for P-LINCS: 1.138 nm
This distance will limit the DD cell size, you can override this with -rcon
Using 0 separate PME ranks, as there are too few total
 ranks for efficient splitting
Scaling the initial minimum size with 1/0.8 (option -dds) = 1.25
Optimizing the DD grid for 10 cells with a minimum initial size of 1.423 nm
The maximum allowed number of cells is: X 4 Y 4 Z 3

Thanks for that. I will notify the researcher about this :)

I'm a bit surprised that 8 or 9 didn't work. For 10, the factor of 5 does often cause problems but it's not consistent.
