CERN-ing Out The Numbers

http://arxiv.org/abs/cs.DC/0306058

One of the joys of Linux, I am told, is how you can gang a whole lot of little computers to create a sort of Compzilla. I suspect the folks at CERN have more than a little bit of experience with this; the abstract contains a link to the full paper. The noise of 1,000 fans all whirring together at once must be something to be heard to be believed.
