One of the more esoteric announcements to come out of SuperComputing 17, an annual conference on high-performance computing, is that one of the largest US scientific institutions is investing in Raspberry Pi-based clusters to aid in development work. The Los Alamos National Laboratory’s High Performance Computing Division now has access to 750-node Raspberry Pi clusters as part of the first step towards a development program to assist in programming much larger machines.


I wonder how well it compares to a giant IPaq cluster. Probably nicer packaging if nothing else.

I can't help but thing though that if the intent is to be a super computer development prototype platform they wouldn't've done better to made a 250Pi model, at ~1330W it could be run off a standard 15A US residential circuit. 750 cores seems like it should still be enough to catch any obvious scalability problems.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
