how would that work? an emulated CPU is a single thread of execution,
a single threaded work can't be distributed. if you a multi-cpu VM,
then in theory you could process each VCPU on a different node, but
then how would you emulate the single RAM space? over the network???
that would brutally kill performance.

That's my main problem.

Another option is emulate an iSCSI storage using iET, run multiple Windows guests and create a cluster between them. However, I don't know if that's a goog choice.

Did anyone create something like that? Does anyone have another idea?

Thanks a lot.
