Hello fellow tech nuts! If you are like me and need to run

multiple compilers, physics simulations, other programs at the same time and monitor the results at the same time, but no single

CPU and GPU can handle the everything? Or you need to use 4

different operating systems at the same time? enter the world

of personal networked super-computing!

My setup is

(1) Connect all computers together with cat.5E cable to a central gigabit Switch (For quickly accessing different files attached to different computers.)

(2) Use a KVM switch (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KVM_switch) , so you can quickly view the output of every computer with the same keyboard, mouse and monitor. This is much better than using the slow Microsoft remote desktop, and will work with any operating system.

With this setup, I have found that multiple cheaper computers and one top of the range computer linked together gives the best results for money.

This sounds like something Xen is designed to deal with, do live migration of virtual machines based on computational demands.

You can set up a VM on you personal computer and transfer it over to a server rack in a closet once it starts heating up.

Perhaps but you might save on power bills in the long run by having it all run on a single powerful computer. Depends on the price of electricity where you live.

Plus getting started with VMs only takes a few hours of study and practice compared to the hassle of setting up computers and a home network.

>what is latency

Your solution is a very inefficient way to do parallelization, and will only do decently well for workloads that can be split in advance in sufficiently large chunks.

That is exactly why it works for me, despite the crudeness of it

will check that out cheers.

Erlang (the official programming language of white men) is really good for building distributed systems

Read ch 14 of this if you're interested, you won't understand the syntax, but it describes how it works really well
