Re: what was the name of the app...

Mosix does not exactly show on cpu, it lets you run a lot of instances of
the same program and then it spread it
around in the cluster/multi-cluster. The main program with mosix is the lack
of thread/shared memory support,
but beside that it's quite useful. (We use it at huji with quite a few
clusters).

Please - this view needs to be uprooted.

OpenMosix was just a highly PR-ed fork of the real software, MOSIX.
http://www.mosix.org/
Mosix is very maintained and fully developed  by a group of researchers from
HUJI. The latest news is that it supports sharing accelerators using openCL,
which I find very interesting.

Credit where credit is due.

Re: what was the name of the app...

There is also http://www.kerrighed.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

I played with these a bit. Not sure of the state of affairs, but they were 
mostly useful at the time for dynamic load balancing single threaded 
applications by migrating them around to nodes that were doing little work. 
Support for multi threaded applications and shared memory approaches came and 
went at the time. None of these ssi applications knew how to take a single 
application and break it up, and I doubt that they do now.

After I sent the previous email I remebered openMosix and saw what you were
talking about.

I thought about OpenSSI, not sure if it fits that task.

Well, a potential customer of mine wants to run different apps (most of them
are not cluster aware), on a "small" cluster (50 servers, dual processors
each). After I sent the previous email I remebered openMosix and saw what

OpenMosix, but it I's hardly usefull for most usages, old, not really
maintained,  and very expensive. Why do you need it?
