Interesting. The actual concrete idea that I had in mind was an image comparison job, downloading umpteen billion separate images and trying to find the one most similar to a template. Due to lack of easy parallelism I was unable to then compare the top thousand against each other quadratically, but it would be interesting to see if I could have done something like that to share image comparison information.
