My old MPI code had a scaling bug. Performance scaling (playouts per second) was linear, but the strength did not scale well, and 64 cores was weaker than 32 cores. I have a 16 core cluster of my own now (four 2.3 GHz Q8200 quad core), and I discovered that the MPI code hangs when using MPICH2 rather than the Microsoft MPI library. So last week I rewrote it with a different algorithm, and it seems to scale much better.
It's on CGOS now, for at least a few days. It would be great if some other strong programs could join, zen, or fuego-8c, or aya-4c, or the strong version or pachi.
