Ah, yes, the old conflict-of-interest conundrum. You want to graduate
as soon as possible, your advisor wants cheap labor to further his
career. You might ask your advisor how spending your time setting up
this cluster will help you in completing your degree. If it is not
intimately part of your thesis, he should get a comp sci student to
set up the cluster.

P.S. Many of us have "been there, done that." My Numerical Analysis
prof gave some great advice: If it takes longer to optimize your code
than to run it, you've wasted your time.
