This is a small development cluster that we use.  It has 1 master and 4 
slaves.  All are core2duo 2.4Ghz with 4G ram and 2x500G sata hard drives 
on intel boards running a stripped down version of fedora core 6.

Our production system consists of 1U supermicro servers with the same 
specs except running a single 750G sata.

We are in the initial stages of experimenting with a 1U supermicro 
system that can hold > 1T of space and 16x cores (2 boards with dual 
quad xeons) and requires a 900W power supply.  A monster box in a very 
small case.  I don't have any benchmarks as of yet but I will keep the 
list informed of our progress.
