E.g., I've got a list (~50'000) of 2D points and I'd like to run any clusterization algorithms such that it'll automatically find a list of clusters given a diameter.

IMO the first thing to do with 2D data is plot the points. In general, a human analyst should be able to spot the interesting patterns. Since you have a decent amount of data, reducing the alpha/transparency of the dots may aid in visualizing density of the points.

You can use DBSCAN or Quadtree for this purpose. These Algos reduce 2D search space so that clustering does not become n*n in complexity.
