I am not getting mail from CCL for two days now. This is a testmail to
check if it comes back to me.
Please dont reply to this mail.

Sorry for any unconveniencies.

Stefan.

I posted the message below on Monday, got automated confirmation that it
will be distributed on Tuesday but did not get any mail from CCL in the
last couple of days. The interesting thing that I have already started to
receive replies on the question which I thought was not mailed. I think
system has some (geographical) selectivity in distributing the CCL
messages. I post my question again.

Hello,

I am a novice user of Gaussian and want to have a good advice from
experts on tuning Gaussian-98 options to get best performance in terms of
CPU time. 

Some specific information:

1. Molecular system:  medium-size hydrocarbon clusters (20-30 carbon
atoms) 

2. Method: DFT (standard LSDA + Becke-Perdew-Wang gradient corrections). 

3. Task: energy and forces with moderate accuracy.

4. System: SGI O2K machine with plenty of memory available. 

I can get trivial speedup by using several processors in parallel mode,
but I want to tune the execution on the level of single processor first.
Also the effect of the basis set size is also obvious and predictable.

Since I have to sample quite a large number of configurations studying
transition states, I have to count every CPU minute. But according to my
little experience Gaussian is still slow as compared to MSI DMOL. 

I will summarize responses,

Ivan Oleinik.

Dear CClers,

Would anyone know a value for the experimental dipole moment of 
indole, preferably with error bars?

A recent paper on indole lists a value of 2.13 Debye, which comes 
from the Tables of Experimental Dipole Moments, A.L. McClellan (1963). 
The original reference of this number dates back to 1944, and since
our library does not have such old journals, I have no idea about
the accuracy of this result. The newer version of the Tables of
Experimental Dipole Moments (1974) apparently got lost in our library...
I assume that there are some newer experiments available. 

I would be very grateful for any response.

Best regards,

Tanja

Hello,

sorry about the lack of chemistry--anyone compile xmgr on alpha
linux--cannot seem to find <Xm/*> includes...

Thanks, Iraj.
