"There is another type of parallel processing that involves using multiple
computers over a network. This is known as cluster computing or distributed
computing. Such methods require problems that admit large-grain
parallelization. Although such methods can be of interest in the
computation of statistical results, Stata/MP does not address such parallel
architectures." Page 4, "Stata/MP Performance Report"
