Jan Stránský posted a new comment:
It depends on the fact, if the bodies of one clump are overlapping or not.
If they overlap, the Monte Carlo method is the easiest way from
implementation point of view. On the other hand, If they do not overlap,
than the "sum of members inertia" is the fastest as well as exact approach.
