SHAUN

Essentially a rack of mini Optiplexes clustered together for parallel number crunching, primarily used for learning.



This is after the major redesign for the status, since it was a bit ugly initially


Hardware & Software

All four nodes run Debian with Julia 1.12.5 for computation.

Node RAM Disk
node1 8 GB 104 GB
node2 16 GB 221 GB
node3 16 GB 441 GB
node4 8 GB 225 GB

Cluster total: 48 GB RAM, 1 TB disk, not bad for a 60 dollar setup

Management is handled by SHAUN Utils, which is a custom toolkit I made which manages the dashboard, job queue, and node orchestration. I will make it public once I have polished it enough, but for now I am a bit swamped with other projects so this is a bit on hold.


Side projects I run on SHAUN:

Chess bot: u_mad

Ragebait bot

Three-body problem simulations

(it's finished, I need to add notes and make the project repo public)

Basic 2d granular testing across nodes

The precursor to Acqua Calda and primarily what inspired me to start the acqua calda project. It is extreemly basic and only served as a learning problem for parrelization and a bit of stress testing the cluster. Like the 3 body problem this is a pretty messy repo so once I get the time I will publish it with the rest of the shaun projects, with the attention it deserves.
