Task / Qestion

I have built a RAspBerry PI cluster with 4 X RPI.

How do I run MONO on the cluster ??

Using MPI ? or Docker ??

Of course I want the desktop performance improved 😁👍🇩🇰

Compile MONO in a special Way ? How ?

Thank you in advance.😁😁

It's not entirely clear what you're after. We have Mono for Pi packages, but I don't think that would have any impact on your desktop performance?

Hi Jo

Thank you for replying.👍

For a cluster I have already built I need a solution for using it`s full capacity when running MONO.

I have 4 X RaspBerrerries PI connected in a cluster using a hardware switch.

This means 4 processors eqals 16 CPU cores..

How do I compile MONO ( Open Sorce) to use the full capacity of the cluster:

(Anticipating that compiling for either MPI or Docker is required)

Either:

or:

Goal is to improve performance of MONO running a cluster. Thereby enhancing performance considerably.

Best Regards

Parallel computing isn't something you can "just" enable, and MPI clustering is cost effective, but difficult to program.

You can write your own MPI software with Mono (e.g. with https://github.com/mpidotnet/MPI.NET ) but in the general case, an arbitrary Mono on computer 1 can't benefit from cores on computer 2 for an arbitrary app. And there are definitely no desktop apps which use MPI.
