When I had access to a few Top10(tm) clusters for tests in ~2004, there was a distributed povray-like thing that a colleague used to render some scene of a space battle with all the lighting tricks at a huge-at-the-time resolution. Took about 30 hours on about 1000 top-of-the-2004-line Linux machines. I might still have a copy somewhere! I bet it’s like 4K or something else that my phone can reproduce in near-real-time.

Id like to see this if you still have it!

That’s sort of creepy—I was exchanging email last week with a colleague from then and asked him to see if he had a copy of any of it. We both think we burned all the files we had from the national labs and other clients when we quit, but he’s going to look.
