If your employer is serious about server performance then they should buy you a bunch of systems for testing such things.
That'd be nice. But that costs, and they may not have the budget. At VLSCI we're lucky enough to have a spare box for QA, but that's not a compute node clone, it's an infrastructure box clone. There's not really such a thing as a spare HPC compute node, they're just broken ones waiting to be fixed so you can get it back in service to run some more of the queue of jobs you've got waiting.. cheers, Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC
