So what if you the reader actually clicked this topic and expected code and brilliance. That, reader, is when I tell you you will never find that here. Or possibly in any of my threads.
Friends, I want to do something really god damn stupid. What if you took 10 AME, put Plan9 ion it so you could hot drop to the terminal in p9, make passthrough work in p9, and give it all the servers and tools.
Then, on top of that, make them be able to communicate to each other in system, and then over network.
Imagine. You go get a shitty netbook for 20 bucks. Not fast enough. Well, go find some random other computer, install this, and today, it starts taking some of the load of your netbook. Whichever machine is on first is the start of the chain.
Iâm not even drunk or high right now I just want that.
Imagine having an atom based netbook from 2008 and you pass through a gpu over the network, not even fucking opening the damn thing, you just have a pc somewhere with like 8 gpuâs in it serving 6 clients or some crazy shit.
Oh I know hadoop very well. I used it to make an A render farm out of p4âs and and 9700âs in high school. It has its quirks and bonuses here and there, however it doesnât allow for bonkers what the fuck levels of computing.
As in, take a netbook, connect to gaming computer, jack gaming computers gpu for your shit for an hour or two.
Connect how? Is it gonna be some kind of direct connection P2P or based on the ISO/OSI stack?
The feasibility depends also on the type of workload youâre gonna throw at this network of computers. If itâs real time video playback the turnaround times for each frame is gonna be huge and make that impossible. If itâs some kind of non time sensitive computation sure, most of those kind of programs already support clustering.
