I'm not sure if this has come up before, but I was just thinking about diskless cluster nodes, or if not diskless, run them so they boot network, and use the entirety of the local disk as scratch?

This of course would increase load on the head node, and add more traffic to the network, but would it be worthwhile as an option to add to oscar? Or is it a horrible idea for clusters in general?
