Ladysilverbeam: I would use hardbody dynamics to do that instead of normal particles unless they were pretty close to spherical. The reason why is that collision detection for particles is pretty much spherical.

Rendering speed is all relative to what you are working with. As in all things CG there are trick to cheat many endeavors but they have to be regulated by what the end results have to be.

[auroratdunn]

You can download a trial version which is *virus* free, but not economically free.
