G+_Steve Martin Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Not sure clustering these makes much sense. The performance you would get out of 16 of these little beasts would be a small fraction of the performance of a single Intel 4 core CPU. I suspect price/performance would be astoundingly bad, despite the cheap price. IMHO the cool thing about the Pi is that you can have a SOC system just about anywhere you want it. With enough horsepower to perform some meaningful tasks. Strapping them together puts them all in one place, without enough performance to do anything a single bigger system could get you.

G+_Jason Perry Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I would do it just for the heck of it. More of a now I know where all my pi zeros are when I need one for a project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jason howe Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 The only option I see for this is as a router option for multiple though to be honest I can see why we can't look at a pci-e/x board option and do a big radio multi transceiver and add server mics as a talk board.
