Think about GPU acceleration for networks #117

A gazillion agents all doing the same relatively simple thing? Sounds like a problem for a GPU to me.

Yes, and fortunately we're not structure "by-agent" but rather "by-state", which makes many operations more efficient. Nonetheless, still worth exploring possible GPU-based acceleration options, perhaps via libraries like #146.
