Re^3: Regarding building of a cluster...

Hello,

I gave you inappropriate link, here is correct
http://www.chemsoft.ch/qc/raspigamess.html
There is automatic script for gamess installation on raspberry pi.
I am very curious raspberry pi molecular modeling cluster. If you will build it please give me an information about that.
Best regards,
Maciej Czarnacki

>Dear Maciej,
>Thank you for your encouragement and appreciation. Your kind words have provoked me to make one now. I checked the link and it seems ubuntu linux is the chosen option. I am using Linux mint. I found it much better than Ubuntu though. I have some  points here:
>1) Good that you noticed it that its power consumption and cost is low..
>2) But its low cost per unit could over come performance issue perhaps.
>3) It should be perhaps easy to cool this cluster owing to its small size. Plus it won't heat up much at all.  :-) thnx to its 700MHz processor.
>4) I haven't checked it.. But there must be some overclocking option.
>5) One very important point we have overlooked is its GPU performance. It does support HD video and I feel I read its speed is in gigapixel/sec. So we could use its gpu capability too.
