I would suppose (because synchronization has substantial costs) that
there is more than likely _no_ material improvement in performance.
"Clustering" can only provide material performance improvements if the
problem turns out to be "embarrassingly parallelizable." That is a
rather difficult condition to satisfy, and it is very likely to be
FALSE whenever there is need for conflict resolution between nodes.
