Yes, but initially it was created not to test new systems, but to check
regressions after some commits.

Bruno is right, you should test the performance on your real tasks.
After that you can define, what is an optimal number of cores for it.
Yade is working fine in batch-mode, where you can calculate
several tasks in one time, using this optimal number of cores.

You can check and other DEM-codes, maybe they will work
even better in your special case.

> 2) how to improve performance?
Yade code is paralleled in most possible places. If you find more
optimal way to do it, it would be very welcome.

Cheers,

Anton
