Particles with Binning.
Attempted to implement Zach's binning trick, and got up to 1250 particles moving smoothly.
Then I attached their size to their velocity. I tried to comment the code well in case anyone else wants more particles.

The quicktime doesnt run so hot, but the program runs really smoothly
