parallel. How to make such an efficient crutch in Forth?

You lost me.  Why would one "serve all states in parallel"?

I was thinking on running a special kind of application
(circuit simulation) on a GPU. [It is possible to transform
circuits into a (big) digital wave filte (DWF, Fettweis).
The advantage is that computation is parallel, with one
result per clock cycle (no iteration needed). Because of
the clock, the computations on each node can be done in
parallel.]
