Hi All, Which one of the following two choices are better (assuming both clusters have nearly same cost):
1) A 4-node cluster having 8 AMD Opteron of 2.6GHz each and 2GB RAM/node 1) A 5-node cluster having 10 AMD Opteron of 2.2GHz each and 2GB RAM/node Consider GiGE (max 1000mbps) as the interconnect. Is there any significant performance difference between the two? Does the compasison depends on the MPI communication among nodes, for a given application? Thanking all in anticipation. Regards. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
