We present a load balancing strategy for hybrid particle-mesh methods that is based on domain decomposition and element-local time measurement. This new strategy is compared to our previous approach, which assumes a constant weighting factor for each particle to determine the computational load. The timer-based load balancing is applied to a plasma expansion simulation. The performance of the new algorithm is compared to results presented in the past and a significant improvement in terms of computational efficiency is shown.
