Hadoop also has a process called streaming that allows data to be processed by
arbitrary binaries and scripts, and this could include Vala produced binaries.
Not sure how this fits into Hadoop2 though, but a few links that I have
bookmarked:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HadoopStreaming

Some comments on its application to scientific computing:

http://www.slideshare.net/hortonworks/large-scale-math-with-hadoop-mapreduce
And at the really rough edge you could even try GPU computing nodes with OpenCL
and Vala:

If you ever do this, then a blog post to the world would be very interesting on
how far you got.
