I have now tested to run the same simulation on one computer. This gives
the same result every time, until I restart the computer. Then it starts
to give a different result. Altough I haven't looked at it in detail, it
looks like the divergence starts happening after the first collision (as
Victor mentioned in the other thread). Now the question is what may
change after a computer is restarted? Perhaps some RNG is seeded with
the start time of the machine. Perhaps it has something to do with when
DLL-files are loaded (do they stay in memory between program runs?).
