Hi,

        I'm not sure exactly what you mean by loose vs.tight coupling.  One
piece of an answer might be that current implementations of X10 assume that
nodes will not fail or become disconnected from each other during a
computation.   So that might mean tight?

        It is certainly reasonable to run X10 computations over a moderate
size cluster of commodity nodes connected by ethernet (in addition to
running on more traditional HPC systems).
