I played with these a bit. Not sure of the state of affairs, but they were 
mostly useful at the time for dynamic load balancing single threaded 
applications by migrating them around to nodes that were doing little work. 
Support for multi threaded applications and shared memory approaches came and 
went at the time. None of these ssi applications knew how to take a single 
application and break it up, and I doubt that they do now.
