I'm not planning on running gentoo on CoreOS; so apologies if that is confusing. I'm intending on running a stripped and optimized gentoo OS and linux kernel as close to bare metal as I can. gcc5 is targeted at both system, GPU and distributed resource compiling (RDMA). Mesos + spark + tachyon + storm + RDMA + GCC-5.x is a killer platform for clustering. It supports some traditional and well as radical frameworks. Mesos is exploding with new Frameworks and is planning on support for many languages. There is a bgo on apache-spark that needs a really talented Java Hack to solve. There is also an upcoming mesos conference in Ireland [1] that any Euro_hack interested in Clustering should attend. Many companies are hiring talent and paying a 50% premium, particularly if you can admin, code and compile and know a bit of basic clustering.
