I think I have come to a compromise that can keep me in business.
Until I have a better understanding of the software and am ready for
production runs, I'll stick to a small system that can be run on one
node and leave the other two powered down. I've also applied for an
adjunt instructor position at a local college for some extra cash and
good experience. When I'm ready for production runs I can either just
bite the bullet and pay the electricity bill or seek computer time
elsewhere.
Mark,
For MPI testing/debugging, you can create a few virtual machine on one
node using VWware or Xen. VMWare is free, unless you want all the bells
and whistles.
You don't need to go this far. Just set up the hostfile to use the same
host name several times. Just make sure you don't start swapping :)
