Probably wouldn't perform well distributed. It does a lot of fine  
grained updates which would be expensive over a network. Distributed  
algorithms generally
try to do as much locally as possible and minimize cross node  
chatter. Might be an interesting experiment though. Then maybe come  
up with variations
that improve it.

Cheers,
Steve
