Could you also tell us what switches you use ? This is just to make an 
idea as we are probably interested to set up something very similar in the 
near future, Myrinet is still expensive for small number of nodes and 
Gigabit Ethernet seems to have a pretty small latency with SCore (which is 
more important for us more than the increased bandwidth).
