If the exact position is not importent and all the particles use a relatively small
percentage of 
the volume.
Use a while loop to randomly place all your small spheres.
If the positions of your spheres are from a file, you can use Slime's proposition.
You still use a while loop to read the positions from the file and create all the
spheres. If all 
the spheres share the same texture, your better to wrap them all in an union and apply
that texture 
to the whole union. It will use a lot less memory that way: 1 texture deffinition
instead of 1000.
