Hi Andreas, many vendors are going to put in the market ARM+GPU based cluster. Yes, ARM is a 32bit system, with now a 1 Gbit connection normally, but in few watt could have a performance of 300 GFlops... so I think in the near future could be a player in the HPC market.
I'm interested yust for the patchless cluster... thanks On 10/31/2012 04:55 PM, Dilger, Andreas wrote: > On 2012-10-31, at 8:27, Gabriele Paciucci <[email protected]> wrote: >> has anyone tried to compile the lustre patchless client on a debian linux >> for arm architecture?
