I don't remember exactly I think we where just running a copy of seti. The problem is that the nodes are basically a big peer to peer infrastructure and the amount of network chatter ground everything to a stop and totally saturated the switches. If you are just running a few nodes on a 100 base network it runs just fine, anything over twenty and the traffic really starts to be a issue.
