be familliar with this kind of system and then extend it to around 20 nodes.
Tasks size could vary between 1G to let say 10G.
10G is quite modest, especially for 20 nodes (ram is cheap!).
are you sure you need a cluster? a single nicely configured
SMP system will handle 10G jobs quite neatly,
does the same thing with a slightly simpler syntax. There is mounting
evidence that you should use sha1sum rather than md5sum.
for general checking, md5 is still fine (ie not security-related stuff).
I am guessing you are using TCP NFS mounts as well? TCP forces retries in

Good morning all,
Our faculty is thinking about a cluster for material simulations. At the
moment we would like to use FEM, MD, MPM and maybe in some cases a
multiscale FEM/MD or MPM/MD. We will start with a very small cluster

You can accomplish (b) using a mmaped file, which is much easier than
