comp.parallel is another good (better?) place to post this question.
Lots of distributed-memory-experienced people there.

It can be easy, it can be difficult.  Probably not that easy.
Debugging can be fun.  
But it is probably a good experience.
There was a paper out of AT&T describing, among other things, 
a 'special-purpose' hardware with uses in biochemistry calculations.  
Pretty fast, I remember.
It may be interesting to look at it.
