It seems you used much less particles than would result from your 
description in the source.  Some first results are here:

http://www.tu-bs.de/~y0013390/files/particle1.mpg
http://www.tu-bs.de/~y0013390/files/particle2.mpg

The first is with quite strong damping during collisions - as you can 
see in the other one i had difficulties making the particles fall 
through the torus with less damping.  With so many particles it looks 
quite confusing - you can't really follow the path of a single particle.

Concerning performance - since there are no collisions between the 
particles and i used the fastest environment method (object based, 
method 2) it simulates pretty fast, 200s for the whole animation while 
another render was running on the computer.
