Given that my predation model both creates and drops a lot of agents
through the simulation, I am curious to know whether or not it would be
cheaper if I created a large pool of agents at the begining of the
simulation, and set a flag in the methods normally scheduled, such that if
"isDead == true", that this would simply leave that method call. This way I
don't have to do dynamic scheduling OR object creation, but would the extra
overhead be worth it? I simply don't know the costs of each.
