[rspec-users] Running cucumber distributed across hardware

[Chris Flipse]

I'm thinking about trying to get TestJour in place to run on a single
system, but one with a crapload of processors, since that's about the only
way to make anything run reasonably on a Sparc ...

I think I remember seeing that there was a Bonjour protocol client for
Solaris, but I'm not sure where.  Of course, if there was some way I could
specify a number of processes for cucumber to spawn, that would work just as
well for my particular case ....

Desparately need to do _something_, because right now, our Cucumber tests
take about 30 minutes to run ...  Ruby on Solaris/Sparc is *painfully* slow,
but that's the architecture I'm stuck on ...
