Depending on whether you have access to the simulation engine code
or not and whether you want to put in the effort or not the floating
point digital signal processing chips now routinely provide over 3
gigaflops/second if you can get your code to fit inside the constantly
increasing memory that is inside these parts.

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the source code. But, your idea is
an interesting one....I am not sure I have the expertise to pull it off
though!

Reading your other posts, I might suggest asking your Spice vendor to
tell you how much improvement you are going to get if you switch to a
different processor. They certainly should know the answer to this,
even if it takes your handing over your spice model to them to run.

And if there is money in the budget you might compare the speed of
the Spice packages available from a few vendors, again perhaps needing
to hand over a copy of your typical model.
