- JoshTriplett 8y agoI did investigate all of those services before I replied. I see that MacStadium will manage Mac Pro systems, but those don't have nearly the processing power I'd want. As I said, where can I get a 36-core 72-thread Mac? Nowhere, at least not legally.
- 1123581321 8y agoWhy doesn’t their private cloud service give you that? It doesn’t seem reasonable to insist you get all your computing power from one physical machine if another solution is available.
- JoshTriplett 8y agoBecause I can't do make -j72 (or the Ninja equivalent) across multiple machines. There are multiple reasons to want a single large machine rather than distributed systems. I can get that for a Linux or Windows machine, quite easily, from hundreds of vendors.
- 1123581321 8y agoYou’re right. I thought they could abstract away the network parallelization but they can’t.
