The simulation of the ATLAS detector is a major challenge, given the complexity of the detector and the demanding environment of the LHC. The apparatus, one of the biggest and most complex ever designed, requires a detailed, flexible and, if possible, fast simulation which is needed already today to deal with questions related to design optimization, to issues raised by staging scenarios, and of course to enable detailed physics studies to lay the basis for the first physics discoveries. Scalability and robustness stand out as the most critical issues that are to be faced in the implementation of such a simulation. In this paper we present the status of the present simulation and the adopted solutions in terms of speed optimization, centralization of services, framework facilities and persistency solutions. Emphasis is put on the global performance when the different detector components are collected together in a full and detailed simulation. The reference tool adopted is Geant4.
