depends on the "grid" (grid being a very new term for an idea that is at
least 25 years old -- see RSEXEC on the early Arpanet on TOPS-10).
Yes, in many cases, CPU servers should reboot after each job, in many
environments -- not just US Gov't either, industry people can be quite
paranoid. So it matters.
In other cases, e.g. SETI@home, I guess rebooting your windows box every
time it stops would be bad :-)
