<br>
you have to provide enough information in order to give an educated answer.<br>
In your case, if you only changed the thermostat and that leads to a 10 fold<br>
slow down of the calculation, you need to investigate the timing output at the<br>
end of the runs.<br>
Is the timing for the thermostat dominating your calculation? This would be<br>
very special and has to be investigated.<br>
Are there side effects, e.g. number of SCF iterations increasing? Also very unusual<br>
and should be investigated.<br>
<br>
You can see: no specific question backed with enough information - no good  answers.<br>
<br>
regards<br>
<br>
Juerg Hutter<br>

Subject: [CP2K:17134] Re: "Fastest" AIMD simulation settings/parameters<br>

Just replying to this to bump it higher since I haven't received a response yet.<br>

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:<br>
Using GTH-PBE potential and the DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH basis set. Fermi dirac smearing must also be used<br>
