You'd probably get more responses to this question on the redhat-devel lists, or a numerical analysis & computation list. Try getting into contact with FermiLab in the US, I recall a substantial leaning towards computational clusters there, and they would almost certainly be continuing such work with Linux.I was wondering if there are any C or Fortran compilers out there that are optimised for the Athlon and i686 architectures? I've discovered that the GNU compilers are half the speed (literally) of the Intel Windows compilers. (I did a test on a program that runs under Linux and Windows and the speed on Linux was half that of Windows...) Any pointers out there?
Also try giving a quick call/email to the Linux cluster manufacturers that advertise in the Linux mags. While this sort of knowlege is part of their offering, they might be willing to share for free. Of course, they'll like you more if you have a hardware budget. :-)
