Description

Hi,
Thank you for your continued assistance.
This is a question, not a bug.

We have validated openfe, using schrodinger's FEP dataset.
We had thrown several FEP calculations in the lead series for the same target protein.
A difference in calculation time of up to 10 hours was observed for the same read-serial complex leg, Even though the machine environment was all the same.

Could you let me know if there is any possibility of such a difference in calculation time in openfe's algorithm.

Sincerely

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by identifying the OpenFE calculation workflow and comparing the available configuration and runtime details for repeated read-serial complex legs; done would require an evidence-backed explanation of whether algorithmic behavior accounts for the timing difference.
