I've been reading some of the many posts on concurrency and multi-core 
processors. As always, a very interesting discussion.

It got me thinking it would be cool if there was a generic Squeak 
compute farm which you could utilize from any Squeak image. Just write 
some code in a map/reduce fashion and send some jobs to the farm.

Perhaps running in spare cycles on the desktop and or dedicated servers. 
Although I'm not sure how the latter could be funded.

We'd need to work out how to manage the code, job scheduling, security, 
etc.  I doubt it would be easy but it may be very rewarding. Perhaps 
someone has looked at something like this already?

It feels like there's an interesting idea in there somewhere. A language 
extension that gives everyone access to a super computer.

I understand that if everyone is using the same super computer, it 
ceases to be super but i doubt this would be the case.

Let me know what you think.
