A significant attempt for Quantian Linux ?

I own a previous version of Quantian Linux, on the other hand, this version has 7 gb of uncompressed scientific programs on a 2.5 gb compressed image. But we are putting the cart in front of the horse. To do such scientific work, you must have a super computer. The supercomputer must have architecture to fit the clusterKnoppix software architecture, which is based on openMoaix. Linux Mosix is still lack of SMP power, meaning not yet doing 32 cpus at once. so, it requires clustering to add up to the computing power. The question is how do you design the super computer to use, to the utmost power of the Quantian Linux? Unfortunately, We are proposing Linux 2.8.x with Posix packets and simultaneous processing instead of SMP processing with clustering arrangement. SMP type thinking will be obsoleted sooner than people think.
