i assume that you are aware of the fact that at 600K parameters
that were derived for 300K have limited applicability.

how long did you run? what kind of system? how large of a protein?
how large is your solvation box relative to the size of the protein?
depending on the rigidity of your system, it may take a while to break up
a structure. also you need to allow for fluctuations, i.e. give the protein
some "wiggle room" to ease the process.
