Abstract
The avalanche cluster distribution of the sand pile model of self-organized criticality is studied on the square lattice. A vectorized multispin coding algorithm is developed for this study with three bits per site. The exponents characterizing the size and the lifetime of the avalanches are slightly different from the previous estimates.
