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.

How do you define "real cluster"?
