Hello,
If you have another machines apart from your workstation that have Maya installed (license required) and you can use those to run the simulation then I'd suggest that you get extra SL licenses. This is very useful as you can run FumeFX simulations on those computers and use your workstation for other tasks.
It also depends which renderer do you use - FumeFX/Arnold shader requires shading license, while using Arnold Standard Volume does not.
The computer you have seems be very nice to run FumeFX simulation. When talking about the simulation speed, it's always better to have cores running on higher clock than to have more cores.
We don't have experience with Bifrost so it's hard to be objective on comparison, but FumeFX is not too difficult to learn.
Feel free to ask any questions you might have.
