Hmm, that is an interesting idea...

No, it is actually quite fast, a couple seconds parse time and less than 
5 minutes to render with water texture. One part of the reason is that I 
have only implemented point emitters, so many of the particles are 
behind others or packed into a small region of space. I am working on 
new emitter types now...
Also, I purposely lowered the number of particles in this scene so you 
could see the individual particles, to show off the custom_particle 
feature.
