I could do that, but part of the reason I started doing this was
to show that petri-nets are a good example of something that maps
well into object-oriented simulation.  As far as the programming
of it goes, it is real nice to represent Places and transitions as
objects and have the actions on them represented as methods.  However,
if it's that much faster to compile the petri net spec into non-object-based
code, then its pretty hard to argue that object-oriented simulation is
a good thing.
