Hi,
I work in industry (CAE) where about 95% of all workloads are binary only
(exception is OpenFOAM, but even this is at some customers procured as binary
from a supplier). The software is certified for RHEL, and mostly also for SuSE.
Cluster sizes are usually confidential but range in several thousands of nodes.
But I agree, the clusters are walled off environments.
This does not mean that no upgrades would be done, because of security getting
more important.
Cheerio, Jan
