Jonathan,

The nearest I get is trivially parallel jobs running on 30 machines
over a hetrogeneous cluster (in fact the more powerful observatory
machines at night). If you have any luck with this project I'd love to
hear about it - I think one of your prime worries might be getting
enough licenses to run this stuff...
