    As for CPU vs GPU, I would never presume to judge your preferences here. You are absolutely right that it is easier to write for the CPU, and moreover, it is much easier to write code that can't be massively parallel. If time or possibility are your limiting factor, CPU is definitely the way to go. In fact, I was recently looking at this neat project that simulates real time fluids with solid objects obstructing the flow. It is done on the CPU, and I have no idea if it would be possible on the GPU. I even started my own simulation as a parallel CPU algorithm. I did not port it until I had a very solid understanding of what I was doing, but I will say the performance increase was truly astounding. I went from managing 200-300 iterations in 20 seconds on 12 SMT CPU cores, to processing 10,000 iterations with 16 times the data in just a few seconds. So if you have something that can be ported to the GPU, there is a lot to gain from it. This kind of performance boost can make impractical applications practical.
