In fact, the first algorithm I tried was simulated annealing (I know this does not equal a GA). It swapped so horrendously that I was discouraged, and the thing took all night to run even for a simple 2D case (I was working on radiation therapy planning). I guess I should have been smarter and worked out how to do it within the constraints of RAM that I had.
