90 * a reference nstlist value of 10 (which is the default in grompp).

98 * \p c_nbnxnListSizeFactor??? or more, but never more than
99 * \p c_nbnxnListSizeFactor??? + \p c_nbnxnListSizeFactorMargin.
100 * Since we have dynamic pair list pruning, the force kernel cost depends
101 * only very weakly on nstlist. It depends strongly on nstlistPrune.
102 * Increasing nstlist mainly affects the cost of the pair search (down due
103 * to lower frequency, up due to larger list) and the list pruning kernel.
104 * We increase nstlist conservatively with regard to kernel performance.
105 * In serial the search cost is not high and thus we don't gain much by
106 * increasing nstlist a lot. In parallel the MPI and CPU-GPU communication
107 * volume as well as the communication buffer preparation and reduction time
108 * increase quickly with rlist and thus nslist. Therefore we should avoid
109 * large nstlist, even if that also reduces the domain decomposition cost.
110 * With GPUs we perform the dynamic pruning in a rolling fashion and this
111 * overlaps with the update on the CPU, which allows even larger nstlist.
