We all scratch our own itch in open-source... good, practical scalability to high levels is an interest of mine :-) Many will choose their solution based on it's ability to scale to their most optimistic projections... so they may only use 10 or 20 servers, but if it can't scale to 100 then they might start with something that easily can. And I think this work would greatly benefit those with smaller clusters also. -Yonik
