hi, I agree, and hoping that something like that is already out there especially given freebsd separation for virtual spaces/cpus for jail support it just the other way around adding resources 'back' into the pool After learning about kerrighed I am thinking that various hadoop/ map reduce systems and clustered database servers (when they are clustered for performance and not fault-tolerance) -- are really incorrect approaches for multi-machine parallelism --instead having it done by OS resources is really the right approach as it it basically tells application developer: " as long as you design your system to run concurrently on a single machine our OS will automatically scale it across more than one machine " this is very powerful -- and I was hoping something like this is also available in the BSD system.
