| | Myrinet vs. Dolphin |
 | | I know they have there $40,000 Millionare-in-a-box, I mean network-in-a-box "solution", but really who wants to waste that much money (if I just need even 32 nodes). |
 | | Dolphin's switchless technology appears inviting in this area, but I don't know if it has really been proven in the Beowulf area. |
 | | From the specs that I've seen, I think Dolphin is supposed to be faster as far as latency, but slower as far as bandwidth, but I rarely trust specs from manufacturers, and was wondering if any of you have run comparison tests. |
