[Klug-general] Clustering

[Hubertus A. Haniel]

You have not actually specified if you want to cluster for distributed 
compute power or high availability - I am going to assume that you want 
distributed compute power and for that http://openmosix.sourceforge.net 
is an interesting project which I played a while back and it works well 
for threaded applications.

Best regards
Hubba
