[HECnet] "Mixed" clustering

[Kari Uusim ki]

About the comparation between FDDI and RD* disks. Theoretically FDDI should be faster, because it is capable of delivering about 12MB/s, compared to the RD* disks which might be able to deliver about 1MB/s.

This is where I've always wanted to play with FDDI.   I'd love to boot a
MicroVAX II off of either a high end VAX or an Alpha via a FDDI link.   I'm
curious as to which would be faster.   Running the MicroVAX II off of native
disks, or over the FDDI link.
