It seems to me that your new computer should be very good for "simulated evolution" such as for instance "Gaussian adaptation" because you may test all individuals in a pululation of 1000 individuals in parallel.

But the relatively small number os individuals in a population limits the number of degrees of freedom in the process, because the statistical certainty in the elements of the moment matrix of the Gaussian must be determined with sufficient precision.
