"""Configuration for PhysX solver-related parameters.
These parameters are used to configure the PhysX solver. For more information, see the `PhysX 5 SDK
documentation`_.
PhysX 5 supports GPU-accelerated physics simulation. This is enabled by default, but can be disabled
through the flag `use_gpu`. Unlike CPU PhysX, the GPU simulation feature is not able to dynamically
grow all the buffers. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a reasonable estimate of the buffer sizes
for GPU features. If insufficient buffer sizes are provided, the simulation will fail with errors and
lead to adverse behaviors. The buffer sizes can be adjusted through the `gpu_*` parameters.
