    The simulation will simply take longer to get to the next state. We wouldn’t be able to tell.

    Heck, we might have crashed the simulation multiple times already with crazy experiments and they had to load a backup.

      You’re assuming RAM is the limitation, with disk swapping. What if we run out of disk space?

      We’ve been crashing this shit since 2012 and the results have been… interesting so far.
