Liqing Jiao is still having a problem:
Dear Anton,

I use yade-0.70.0. I think it should be very new. I just updated last
month. About "How many bodies are participating in your simulation? If
it is less than, for example, 10 000, it will not be effective to use
all 32 cores." you said, does it mean that the more particle more cores
will be better, right? What relationship between the particle amount and
the cores? Thank you very much. Looking forward to your reply.

Cheers, Liqing
