I'd actually be interested to see what kind of benefit a cluster could
provide.  Granted, my cluster would be no match for the 650, but if there
was enough higher end hardware I'd think some damage could be done.  

That said, it will mainly depend on if the app is multithreaded or can be
migrated (if using the Mosix environ).  If it uses shared memory all best
are off under Mosix.
