move. Note that when the difference between the current box dimensions
and the shrink-wrap box dimensions is large, this can lead to lost
atoms at the beginning of a run when running in parallel. This is due
to the large change in the (global) box dimensions also causing
significant changes in the individual sub-domain sizes. If these
changes are farther than the communication cutoff, atoms will be lost.
This is best addressed by setting initial box dimensions to match the
shrink-wrapped dimensions more closely, by using <em>m</em> style boundaries
