Ya, just a little TMI.
I think you will need something fairly custom HPC setup... You will need to
find a way to break your work up into pieces and send them out the the
various nodes, then collect the returned results and piece them back together
(and handle timeouts of jobs not returned by a given node and re-issue to
another node).
There are some projects out there that might work as a foundation, but it's
slipping outside my expertise (I'm an HA admin). I would suggest stopping by
freenode.net's #hpc channel and seeing what they might be able to recommend.
I've run a small render farm back when I did forensic animations -- but you don't have to have the computers connected for a render farm. But yeah, if I have 100 images and want to do ffts on all of them, I can run scripts on five machines that do 20 each. I'd like to see if a "real" cluster would improve stuff. In addition, some of the software I've used supports real parallelism.
