[development] Cluster with drupal ?

I actually just set something like this up for a client. Master-master
replication works well. The only thing we had problems with is making sure
that uploaded files get replicated to all of the web servers. We ended up
using Dropbox (I know - there's better solutions out there, but we wanted to
put something together quickly).

Future plans were to implement something like the Andrews File System to
replace Dropbox.

Thanks,
Cameron
