Implementation question: OSX + Linux + MPI + crunch + attack_passthrough .. how? #346

This is more of an implementation / best practice question than it is a bug.

I have three machines, a decked out 17" macbook, a decent linux box with a gpu 
in it, and a high power windows gaming rig. Understanding that currently there 
is no support for doing pyrit operations on windows, I'm leaving that out out 
of the context of my question.

Is there any way (or a best practice) to use attack_passthrough to pipe 
passwords to pyrit, running on multiple systems, setup using MPI to be 
multi-cored?

I'm currently doing it on a single computer with two cores, and looking at cpu 
graphs, I can see that python is only using one CPU at a time. It jumps back 
and forth between the two cores, but only one is used at any given point in 
time. I'd like to use "all gpus" and "all cpus" in a given group of machines to 
crack WPA.
