For interactive workloads (CAD, Altium, etc.) the limiting factor for usability will be the users network connection to the cluster. Ever keyboard/mouse/screen interaction experience the latency added by your internet connection and Stanford's internet connection. For users on campus, this effect will likely be hard to notice, but for users around the world, there may be significant lag. You can test this latency by running the following command:

From LA, I get 29.7ms round trip ping time to the cluster. This is quite respectable. Less than 100ms is quite good, and 15ms is about the limit of human perception.
