Frank,

I don't know if this will help or not, but I have written an
interface to LAM/MPI for PV-Wave which I am currently using, which
is available for download at:

http://schrick.fastem.com/beowave/

I have access to an 8-node 3.6 GHz Athlon Beowulf cluster. The
problem is that the length of your analysis programs will grow
to meet the size of your computer. Once you go down this path,
you'll never be able to go back.

I realize that PV-Wave and IDL are not the same and I don't know
how much time or effort your willing to invest, or even how
compatible this package will be with IDL. Maybe, someone else will
respond with a package which is more compatible with IDL.

I'm also interested in how other people are using these types of
tools in a Beowulf environment.

thanks,

Mike
