I have checked outputtimings and indeed I have negative values for some
wall time/step.
I am now trying to recompile charmm/namd for a cluster of dual core
AMD64 connected through gigabit ethernet. I understand that the best
choice for charm++ compiling is to use net-linux-amd64 instead of
mpi-linux-amd64 for this kind of connection. Is this correct?
I would also like to know which compilers work better for this
architecture. I recall that some groups suggested to use Intel C and
Fortran compilers on AMD64, but there was also some problems with them.
So, others suggested to use gnu compilers. I currently have gcc and g77
installed on my system, although g77 seems to be useless for building
charm++.
During charm autoconfigure I get the message.
checking subroutine name used by Fortran compiler... "Fortran compiler
not working"
Regards
Cesar
