what was the name of the app...

[Ely Levy]

Mosix does not exactly show on cpu, it lets you run a lot of instances of
the same program and then it spread it
around in the cluster/multi-cluster. The main program with mosix is the lack
of thread/shared memory support,
but beside that it's quite useful. (We use it at huji with quite a few
clusters).
