And, quite straightforward, i wish to ask you a question.

OR, if that is not suitable, using several FreeBSD servers. I couldn't find any information explaining that variant of using FreeBSD, so here goes the question: > > are FreeBSD-with-Linux clusters really possible? Just to be clear: By cluster, do you mean multiple hosts working on some large computational problem with message passing, may MPI? You might check in the ports to see if there is something to support this sort of thing. I haven't looked, but wouldn't be real surprised. Go to: http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ and do some fishing. Then do some Googling or other searches. Sounds interesting.
