Can anyone point me to information regarding the load placed
on the network and on hardware on the same LAN but NOT running
a parallel application?  

The problem is that the site administrator here would like 
to limit access to the net for parallel applications.  
Her claim is that our application would negatively affect 
others on the same LAN.    

Can anyone provide documentation to show that this is not the case?
Or, if it is, what can be done without completely eliminating
the possibility of parallel computing across the net?
