hello all
as i read in YADE documentation "Yade was originally not designed with parallel computation in mind, but rather with maximum flexibility (for good or for bad). Parallel execution was added later;" and in other hand i have read some comments about parallelization efficiency which is limited. 
in our college there is a cluster with 64 cores but installing any other code and program is a kind of disturbance for students and staff!!!  is there any body who can make a comparison between the cluster and a PC (for example core i7)? is there a great difference in computation cost? number of particles are more than 20,000 which each particle is approximated by clump of spheres.
thank so much
