you cannot cheat physics. well, not unless you are a rare genius. what
use is to have results faster, if they are incorrect?
so the only way to get your work done correctly and faster is to get
hold of more CPUs. NAMD parallelizes very well and there are plenty of
parallel compute resources. it only takes some effort to get hold of
them.
