Subject: PCM solvent model

In the G94 manual, it states that the required input for a SCRF=PCM calculation
is 1) dielectric constant of the solvent and 2) the number of points per sphere.
What is an acceptable value for the number of points per sphere.  Does a larger
number increase comp. time and add better "resolution"?  I'll summarize this
thread.

Thanks in advance.
