Hello,
The first thing to consider is why the 1-2 fs timestep is most often used.
You might also consider various accelerated MD methods and coarse grained MD.

Subject: namd-l: Maximum Timestep for NAMD
Hi all,
What is the maximum acceptable timestep for NAMD? I would like to run longer (1ns to 1ms) simulations, and I am wondering how much I can increase the timestep (to 10fs or 100fs) without detracting terribly from accuracy. What do I need to consider?
Thanks,
Alex
