You may want to consider looking at GNU/Linux and not be stuck on using OpenBSD. I'll probably get flamed, but really GNU/Linux is the dominant HPC platform and the application set is far greater. Not that I don't like OpenBSD, but HPC "isn't its forte" so to speak. Of course feel free to try. Look into MPICH, MPICH2, OpenMPI (my choice). In the end it's the applications that matter, not the OS. --- James A. Peltier james_a_pelt...@yahoo.ca
