Dear all,

We are building a computer cluster to run abinit in the parallel mode. We
are gonna have two or four nodes, and each node will be dual-processor,
quad-core. We wonder if the high speed InfiniBand connection is worthy to
have. Our current jobs include calculating band structure and optical
properties of carbon nanotubes and TiO2. Any suggestions?

Many thanks,

Xiulin
