Support for parallel processing

[Mattias V. Bertelsen]

In the documentation for Zones, it was mentioned that this was going
to be used in the future as a hook for distributed processing.  I was
wondering what kinds of systems this was intended to work on, and how far
along the support was for that?  Are you planning on supporting Beowulf
and/or PVM?  The possibilities for using Swarm on large, fast
Linux/Intel-based clusters intrigue me, especially given the
cost/performance advantages.

Thanks for your time and the GREAT software.
