It's my mistake.
Not the same simulation, the simulation with same protein with explicit
solvent.
I used sander.
I haven't been using pmemd yet. I will try to use it...
I just read archieves and also find your answer to aother amber user.
Also my system is so big that make the implicit solvent simulation be slower
than explicit solvent simulation.
Thank you very much!
(Anyhow, is there any comparison study about the speed of implicit and
explicit solvent simulation according to the size of protein? If there is,
let me know where to find it.)
