For example, let's say you were modeling the dispersion of an ideal gas, which only interacts with another particle when it collides. The grid block size could be set according to the speed of the fastest particle times the step size of the simulation. Therefore, your search optimization would speed up the simulation without any loss of precision.

Oh, and sneezing with strep throat sounds awful. =[
