TST calculation

#1 Post by dido » Fri Jan 19, 2007 4:07 pm

First, in most of the sample setups, SPRING tag was always set to -5, I wonder if there's any criteria to determine the value of it?

Second--i hope this is not a dumb question--I wonder if anyone change the EDIFF and EDIFFG tag just so that we have a less strict stopping criteria to speed up the calculation completion.

Finally, just curious, how long does it usually take you guys to finish a TST search. Mines are running forever~~~


Happy study~~~
