@LOLDISNEYLAND really neat right! I still need to build one of these at my institution. Note Chromium is dead as a project. Other options are out there check out SAGE Or use something like ParaView that can connect to the machines directly.
Your at two different levels. Chromium allows the user of _multiple_ machines with _multiple_ gpus, to create one gigantic X display with full 3D acceleration. Its like Beowulf for display. This if for large tilled displays.
Fussion while in the X server would really be seen as a user app on top of Chromioum that would take the GL and spread it across all cards, to allow insane resolution at decent frame rates. Fussion just makes things pretty, not 10,000x10,000 resolution with GL
@GegoXaren You could do it actually (sorry found your post so late) Modern systems use infiniband at 40,000Mbps network at less than 10 micro-second latency. This allows things like this to work very well even with complex animations like Fussion. Give it a try, just note that IB is about ~$1000/machine including switch.
Wow awesome! I like it.

sorrt about that, it was more of a joke, i understand the basics of it, and know that that would be impossible with current bandwidth and hardware...
