It would appear, after a very short scan of the doc,
that both Linux and BSD have modified the schedulers
with the specific goal of clustering in mind. It looks
like Linux does pretty good overall from the charts,
but there are certain areas that need improvement and
the new BSD w/ ULE looks pretty good. I wonder what would
happen if one of the top 5 supercomputers were to load
BSD. I bet the SGI machine could run BSD, doubt there
is a BSD for BlueGene though.
