Is this reproducible? It sounds like an mpi problem -- either from MPI
itself, or because one of the two processes crashed, and the other process
is just sitting there, waiting for a return message. Is there anything in
the two output files for the job that crashed that is helpful or suggests
a problem?
I'm not sure that I've ever tested a cap water problem with icfe in Amber
9,
but it does seem odd that it would run for thousands of steps. What
happens
if set nstlim to a number shorter than the value at which the simulation
stopped? Do you get a full output with reasonable looking results?
