+ | Please check your job logfiles to see if your program has some problems using the GPUs. In case of GROMACS this might look like: | ||

+ | To use a GPU, set the mdp option: cutoff-scheme = Verlet | ||

+ | |||
+ | **2 compatible GPUs detected in the system, but none will be used. | ||

</ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | In this case a cutoff-scheme was specified that can not be used with GPU acceleration. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Compare the timings with a test run on the same node, that does not use the GPUs. In some cases the GPUs will not help at all, even though '' | ||
