Returns whether to use a direct list only.
There are two methods implemented for finding the local atom number belonging to a global atom number: 1) a simple, direct array 2) a hash table consisting of list of linked lists indexed with the global number modulo mod. Memory requirements: 1) numAtomsTotal*2 ints 2) numAtomsLocal*(2+1-2(1-e^-1/2))*4 ints where numAtomsLocal is the number of atoms in the home + communicated zones. Method 1 is faster for low parallelization, 2 for high parallelization. We switch to method 2 when it uses less than half the memory method 1.
