Several improvements to the previously optimized GROMACS BlueGene inner loops that evaluate nonbonded interactions in molecular dynamics simulations are presented. The new improvements yielded an 11% decrease in running time for both PME and other kinds of GROMACS simulations that use nonbonded table look‐ups. Some other GROMACS simulations will show a small gain. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Comput Chem, 2011
