Dennis,
Thanks for the info. I'm in the process of setting up a small cluster myself
with 1 master and 4 slaves all running the Quad Core but with half as much
RAM. Does doubling the RAM to 4GB make much of a difference?
Thanks
Marc

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.
