 File-extension for source files that are not compiled, but includedIrana

Because of templates, not all files with the implementations of functions can be compiled separately, see e.g. this cppfaq for an explanation of templates and compiling.

Currently, there are some .cc files included instead of compiled, see e.g. CGPoint. Can we rename this to CGPoint.hcc (or something else) to make a distinction between implementation files that are included vs compiled?

 Mercury speed test 

untitled.m

Here the results of computation time from a quasi 2D silo simulation (Trunk, r2478). Particle number is increasing, so I can measure speed as function on N. Speed is at 50'000 particles*timesteps per real second. So a silo simulation (timeMax=3) takes 3 weeks.

In 2012, the chute simulations, we could simulate 8e3 particles and 2e6 timesteps in 10 days (18'500 particles*timesteps per real second), so it got quicker

But: Under idealised conditions (small number of particles, no boundaries/walls), Mercury was at ~500'000 particles*timesteps per real second (measured in Santorini).

My guess: the ghost particles are very costly.
