That's interesting. What tools do you use to run your computations in parallel on a cluster? Hadoop?

For this type of problem - it must be done on a single node. The overhead of network communication would have killed the latency requirement - that's why we need a huge machine like this.

The code was written in C

(We also maintain a Hadoop and Cassandra cluster, and I use Spark for distributed computation - but those are different projects)
