Jeff,

we discussed it with Bruno on IRC. We were both waiting for the other to
make reply ;-). There was multiple things to consider:

1. Parallel computation using openMP (non-intrusive shared memory) could
be tried and benchmarked. Further optimizations may include analyzing
bottlenecks of execution and eliminating those. Very nice for someone
who is into optimization, numerics and wants to learn. Difficulty:
medium (I think).

2. Serialization (and attribute access) in yade. Seems very difficult,
since we need to balance speed, ease of use and non-intrusiveness.
Difficulty: high.

3. Python, which uses serialization at this moment, which is not
efficient; further, bindings should be automatized. I would be able to
supervise this. Difficulty: high.

If you need more details, contact me or Bruno, privately or on-list.

Regards, Vaclav
