Hello all,

Would anyone have any idea as to why a job would stall after calling the
configuration file when running namd64 on more then 16 processors? I use
em64t processors and have up to 64 available so this is quite an
unexpected stall. The job stalls after the TCL: Minimizing for 300 steps
line. Thank you for any possible info.

Cheers!
John Gaff
