So I guess you'll be working on getting a GPL'd, general-use option
available.
..not yet, I'm scheeming a renderfarm stunt; some new 2'nd hand HW shop
here says they got 200 Celeron 850's handy, so that got me thinking
about picking this: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/BogoMips/x29.html#AEN54
sweet spot for a wee while. ;o)
..now this 200 node farm would need about 40, 50 to 60kWe, which I
would like to feed off a genset or 2 burning gas which I would make off
pelletized sewer sludge in my trusty old thermochemical gasifier. ;o)
..now, a 320,000 BogoMips rig running on poo for half a day, oughtta be
able to do flyable software rendering for FlightGear at 1600x1200? ;o)
..what else can I do with this stunt rig, make our new global scenery?
How you going to keep that beast cool? If you put all those machines in
a single room and turned them on, they'd probably melt through the
earth's crust in an hour or two. :-)
Curt.
Plus poo is pretty warm to start with.
