For that kind of solution for bigger fluid volumes, you can go with a RealFlow/Softimage option.
You can read the solved cached grid fluid domain from Realflow into the ICE tree with all its attributes like, particle speed, etc. I am not so sure, but I believe that latest emPoligonyzer can read those attributes and mesh it accordingly and generate UV. The workflow we have been using with Softimage/Realflow, looks like the Maya/Bifrost from the webinar video. The advantage of having the solution of the grid domain in ICE is that you can still intereact with it further more. >From what I watched at that video, I believe that it is totally feasible to have a Softimage/Realflow solution just like Maya/Bifrost if someone could write the bridge as Realflow can be launched by command line in the background and python scripted as well. You will get the grid fluid domain solved in realflow running in the background and get back the solution into the ICE tree. With the additional splash and foam.
