Table 4.
CPU time spent for 10 ps of MD simulation (5,000 steps with 2 fs time step for AA/exp, AA/GBMV, and AA/CG models and 2,500 steps with 4 fs time step for CG model) for five different protein systems. AA/exp refers to simulations with explicit water or water and POPC lipids (bacteriorhodopsin). All the simulations were performed in serial on a single core of an Intel E5–2680v3 processor (2.5 GHz) using CHARMM c41a1. CPU times are provided in seconds. Speedups with respect to AA/GBMV are provided in parentheses.
