Hi, Bruce. Not sure you are looking for a response from a Sun person, but here goes...
Sun is already working on defining an HPC software stack, in fact two of them, one for Solaris (both Solaris and Open Solaris) and one for Linux. All of these stacks will be supported by Sun. Our desire is to define these stacks to be as close as possible in terms of the components chosen to enable users to move between Linux and Solaris as easily as possible based on their needs and desires. Typical components include Sun Grid Engine for distributed resource management, Sun Studio tools for C, Fortran, C++, optimized math libraries (perflib), precompiled versions of ScaLAPACK, Sun ClusterTools (Open MPI), InfiniBand support, etc. I would be very interested to hear specific suggestions from the community on other components that should be considered for inclusion.
