hmm, curious argument - why do you think MOSIX will be more efficient
than a "normal" cluster when confronted with a trivial/serial workload?
is there something about a typical pbs/sge/lsf/etc system that you think
can't handle serial jobs?
I probbably expressed my self i a bad way. What i mean is that with a
MOSIX extension you can start a large bunch of "serial" processes on one
node and these will then migrate in a balanced way in the cluster. A
MOSIX extension is transparent for the other parallell software. I hope
this link will clarify my point:
