Personnally, I would avoid running such a huge job...
Do you control the molecular conformation you selected ?
What are the criteria for selecting this particular conformation ?
Is it just based on a guess originating from the building in a graphic
interface ?
Instead, I would split the big molecule into elementary fragments...
If antechamber needs to be recompiled when you are above a atom
number, the same will append with RESP. See
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Tutorial/Tutorial-1.php
In the introduction, it is written:
RESP was recompiled using qtol = 0.1d-5, maxq = 5000, maxlgr = 500 and
maxmol = 200
