Hi,
Thanks for the great summary. I just wanted to point out that the
Tungsten processors are actually 32-bit (and three years old). I'm not
surprised you're seeing much greater throughput on your own cluster. I'm
sure you'll make your money back in human time alone!
I think you'll find that adding a queueing system makes life easier even
if you only have one user, since it monitors your jobs for you and keeps
the nodes busy. I like Grid Engine, but whatever Rocks supports best is
probably fine. Please also let us know in a couple of months how reliable
your system turns out to be.
-Jim
