I just realized that that was a very old mdp file.
Here is an mdp file from my most recent run as well
as what I think are the domain decomposition
statistics.<br>

More useful information is contained at the very top of the
.log file, after the citations. An example from one of my
own runs is:<br>
<br>
Linking all bonded interactions to atoms<br>
There are 2772 inter charge-group exclusions,<br>
will use an extra communication step for exclusion forces
for PME<br>
<br>
The initial number of communication pulses is: X 2 Y 1<br>
The initial domain decomposition cell size is: X 1.05 nm Y
1.58 nm<br>
<br>
The maximum allowed distance for charge groups involved in
interactions is:<br>
non-bonded interactions 1.400 nm<br>
(the following are initial values, they could change due to
box deformation)<br>
two-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 1.400 nm<br>
multi-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 1.054 nm<br>
atoms separated by up to 5 constraints (-rcon) 1.054 nm<br>
<br>
When dynamic load balancing gets turned on, these settings
will change to:<br>
The maximum number of communication pulses is: X 2 Y 2<br>
The minimum size for domain decomposition cells is 0.833 nm<br>
The requested allowed shrink of DD cells (option -dds) is:
0.80<br>
The allowed shrink of domain decomposition cells is: X 0.79
Y 0.53<br>
The maximum allowed distance for charge groups involved in
interactions is:<br>
non-bonded interactions 1.400 nm<br>
two-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 1.400 nm<br>
multi-body bonded interactions (-rdd) 0.833 nm<br>
atoms separated by up to 5 constraints (-rcon) 0.833 nm<br>
<br>
<br>
Making 2D domain decomposition grid 9 x 6 x 1, home cell
index 0 0 0<br>
<br>
<br>
Also, the output under "DOMAIN DECOMPOSITION STATISTICS" (at
the bottom of the file) would be useful. Also look for any
notes about performance lost due to imbalance, waiting for
PME, etc. These provide very detailed clues about how your
system was treated.<br>
