You successfully prepared your system. Now: How do I tell Hippo to produce a trajectory from it? What parameters to choose? And what should I do when things go wrong.

I started a simple
Hippo Benchmark page on the wiki.
Basically, just run under Linux
and report the user time and the cpu.
(Completely un-scientific but probably better than nothing and gives a first indication of relative performance of architectures.)

I added scaling benchmarks to the wiki page.
I simply ran the WALP + octane MD simulation, took the time and plotted the results. The general results (for this system) appear to be that performance gains beyond 4 cores are negligible.

Tentative conclusions:
- It does not matter if you use the hippo or hippo_p3 binary (at least for the revisions tested).
- The MD code only scales up to ~4 cores (with a factor of about 3.3) (tested on the WALP+octane MD test case).
- Fast Intel processors are good.
