Granted, ther are special applications, but for a stand-alone, set &
forget
machine, I don't think my previous statement is TOO far off the mark
("Is it REALLY that hard...") - but I suspect that a 128-node cluster is

BTW, are you at the Sarnoff center in Princeton, NJ? What are you doing
with 128-nodes? Just curious...
