Most legacy clusters are classified as either capacity clusters or capability clusters. ''Capacity clusters'' contain nodes connected to each other by a relatively slow Ethernet network, while the ''capability clusters'' have a fast network, usually InfiniBand. Large parallel jobs will run better on capability clusters than capacity clusters, while smaller jobs will run almost anywhere. | Most legacy clusters are classified as either capacity clusters or capability clusters.
