F# + MPI + MONO : Clustered Computing

Is it possible for F# and MPI to run off of Mono on a linux computational cluster? Anyone able to attest to it's performance/reliability?

Hm. According to this bug: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=419828 even a basic definition of a map function fails with F# on Mono. Doesn't look like a very stable combination right now.

I have done some basic tests with F# and Mono 2.0 and everything worked well. I know others have done much deeper test that me and have run into a few bugs, but mostly report a positive experience (plus the mono and F# teams are quite responsive to bug reports).

I haven't test MPI.NET at all, but they say it does run under mono: http://www.osl.iu.edu/research/mpi.net/faq/?category=general
