We do! I work at Fermi National Laboratory. To understand the experiment that we're performing here we have to perform a large number of simulations. In general our simultaions only require a small amount of input data and perform a large number of integer and floating point calculations. Every step in MHz that comes out is a real gain in the performance of our simulation. Also (though not to as large a degree) our data analysis is CPU bound.
