The effect of the grid in the vortex-in-cell algorithm on the linear growth rates for an interface undergoing Rayleigh-Taylor instability is studied. Results show that the effect of the grid is qualitatively equivalent to the effect of surface tension. It is also found that only wavelengths which are ten times longer than the grid spacing are resolved with error of less than 10 \% in the growth rate.
