eight extra large clusters is not that much performance.


http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/
Cluster Compute Eight Extra Large Instance
2 x Intel Xeon E5-2670, eight-core "Sandy Bridge" architecture

16(32) cores at 2.6GHz.

I was hoping that was going to be a lot more then just that... I was thinking rack style server boards with four sockets each. Each cluster would be 4-5 of these boards.

I think it all depends on the type of monitoring they have on the rig. If there is not supervision it could be used for anything really.

Amazon EC2 is probably cheaper than Vulcan... but Vulcan prices have not been published.

It's a $8K server.

Think bigger.... MUCH bigger. Companies rent out much more to do big things.

Lets go ahead and do it next year so after we dominate everyone they can then make it illegal whistle.gif

Vulcan should do about 5 petaflops, or 5 quadrillion calculations per second. That would put it at number four on today’s list of the world’s most powerful computers. Sequoia, just a few feet away, but on a separate, classified network, has been benchmarked at 16 petaflops.

Do they allow it to be rented by the hour?
