Hi there, I have been running AIMD simulations for about a year now and it originally started off really slow, only getting 60 fs per day. In particular, I used the NVT ensemble and the Nose-Hoover thermostat. When swapping to the Langevin ensemble and adaptive-Langevin thermostat, the simulation time improved to 200-600 fs a day. <br><br>I wanted to know what settings/parameters you would suggest to improve the speed even further? That is, what are the best settings to choose to get the fastest performance?<br><br>Key things to keep in mind for my work:<div>Using GTH-PBE potential and the DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH basis set. Fermi dirac smearing must also be used </div>
<p></p>
