Has anyone had any experience using OS X with Xgrid (all on local LAN) ,
versus a linux setup running MPI. I know some still debate the true
definition of cluster vs grid, and whether you can truly have a LAN Grid
,etc.. anyway semantics aside. Basically looking to see if anyone has
been using Xgrid with in a LAN environment. The cost is much greater,
but setup is a no brainer for Xgrid. I was trying to google some
performance comparisons with not much luck. Any one have any stories ,
good or bad, to share using xgrid?
