Hi,
I used GPU to accelerate PFV, CPU i7-8850H, GPU Quardro P1000, and tested it 
with oedometer.py on Github. I found that when num_spheres=1000, GPU 
acceleration is slower than CPU. When num_spheres=10000, the GPU is as fast as 
the CPU. Is this normal?

## The DEM-PFV is applied here to 1D consolidation (oedometer test). The 
example includes the determination of oedometer modulus Ee and permeability K.
## The 1D consolidation is simulated as a coupled problem and the analytical 
solution corresponding to the abovementionned Ee and K is used for comparison.
## See triax-tutorial/script-session1.py for more detailed explanations of the 
packing generation procedure.
