[MMTK] Normal Modes for protein complexes

Yes. I'd need to use some parallel eigenvalue routine in order to
parallelize this. Perhaps ScaLapack, but I haven't done anything
with that one yet.

My own real-life normal mode calculations all use C-alpha models, so
they take only a few minutes. There isn't much need for
parallelization there.

Thanks, that will be interesting for me as well!
