Ask HN: CPU Sharing in a Cluster

[abu-matterize]

Is there a way to share system resources like running `make` across clusters?

Say if I've about 20 CPUs from different nodes, can I use all of them while building?

I've never done it, but bazel came to mind https://bazel.build/basics/distributed-builds

A classic quandary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distcc

Interesting. I'll look into that. Just wondering if it's possible for different programming languages like Zig, Go and on?

For go you would need to change the compiler by a lot. rust may be an option, but the projects i have build had often bottlenecks where one thing in the chain took a long time.

May be we can step up and look into the way to distributing the process instead of handling it via the language specific compilers?
