Re: Uses for a cluster

Lars-
 In teh Academic and small buisness teh 7-20 node size range is very
very useful. Until about a month ago when the University purachsed a
130 node cluster for multi-department use, the biggest cluster on
campuse was 32, the average was about 10 nodes. I have just moved the
main engineering cluster from 20 single cpus to 8 dual cores and get a
nice solid 24/6( reboots on sunday to clean up leftover/forgotten
jobs). It provides more than enough power for alot of teh research and
simulations that are run.
