Galizzi?? I wrote InsertionSortCollider from scratch about 6 months ago.
(The original PersistentSAPCollider & friends were purged from the repo

Yes, it works well for our typical simulations, but what is "typical" is
given by the impossibility to have larger ones... (I would love to run
larger ones, for instance, but it is not feasible in the current state)
