While this is all well and good, and many solutions like this exist in the *nix world, the reality is CCP uses Microsoft server OS packages. The technology for loadbalancing processes over multiple physical machines (OpenMosix, ect al) is far beyond anything that MS has, or will have in the foreseable future. CCP has no intentions to switching to a more mature OS that runs on larger machines, so don't hold your breath for this type of functionality any time soon.
Yes, yes, you are 100% correct. It's all Microsofts fault. CCP should use Oracle anyway. I can't understand why they don't. Actually I can't understand why they didn't write the entire application to run on an IBM Z series. OMFG. They're sooooo stupid. Oh, did I already say it's all Microsofts fault? CCP should never have used Microsoft Python. It's so obvious the cluster would have operated better using a mature language like SNOBOL.
Indeed. The poster is obviously determined to get a job in IT by demonstrating his understanding of the situation. All he needs to do now is explain how the world manages to operate so well when over 90% of its computers are running this crappy Microsoft software. Perhaps his explanation will enlighten us as to how come Microsoft is one of the most successful companies on the planet and its founder one of the richest people.
I await his explanation with great interest 
Its quite simple really what these companies with big computers do to ensure that Windows works for them is to get out a big pile of cash to be sent to Bill gates and the MS version of the Necromonican and sacrifice a few goats sprinkling the money with the blood before sending it to gates. Seeing that the companies are paying proper homage to the anti-christ [bill gates] he tells the imps that live inside the core of the Windows program that are what really make Windows work to make the big computers work as advertised [sort off].
