Very large java-by-committee
by Jimmy Nickel - Nov 8th 2004 19:05:33
I had the distinction of making my living from Globus for the past year. It
paid the rent. Its not that I don't appreciate the concept or the theories
associated with Grid Computing, its just that Globus is large, extremely
slow (that is to say, has more overhead than a convertible), extremely
buggy, leaves cryptic and misleading error messages, and isn't documented
at all. (Don't let the documentation link on the website fool you, there's
very little actual information there).
Globus will be great. In 10 years. But it'll be rolled into Websphere by
the end of 2Q2005.

where are the RPM's?
by Crippler - Jan 19th 2004 11:24:59
There are some potentially good software packages that simply don't get
nearly enough attention because of the lack of RPM packages (or at least a
working .spec). This is one of them. They have their own installer. Even
if you want to just download the source, you have to get it via their
installer. Ewww.
