Cluster

I'm quite frustrated with the time it takes me to compile things, especially the Linux kernel as its huge. I'm sure everyone else is too, but I'm going to do something about it. I've been thinking over the past while just how cool it would be to have a cluster, if I needed more processing power I'd just walk over to it and power on a few boxes, then watch as compilation takes a fraction of the time. So, thats my new project. I will design and build a home cluster using a few computers I have kicking around. Watch this space.
