I am about a quarter of the way to a similar setup.
My goal is to have a specialty for each of the Pi's (sensors, controller, terminal, router) without preventing them from doing general tasks. I'm hoping to eventually connect up some Pi zeros as leaf nodes for just sensor/control and plumb through 9P via UART pins.

I mostly lurk around here, as I'm greener than green when it comes to
plan 9. At some point in time, a friend and I were discussing setting
up a small-sized computing cluster for small scale distributed
computations. I was keen on the idea of using inexpensive hardware (we
even joked about using a truckloads of Raspberry Pis), and plan 9
seemed like an excellent candidate for the infrastructure. The biggest
challenge was porting software to Plan 9. Sadly, the idea never took
off. It would be a fun experiment.
