I was able to run Parallel Universe 5.5-2-64bit binaries as provided on the download page on openSUSE 12.1-64bit OS.
My installation of the OS did not have libaio.so.1, libstdc++.so.6 and libtinfo.so.5, so I had to install them (the first 2 for the server and the last one for the client).
Parallel Universe does not have any specific server hardware requirements.
If the server is single core/CPU then you should leave parallel processing disabled (=default).
Parallel Universe is a new extension to MySQL server architecture, created to provide fast parallel
query capability. Speed is achieved by processing tables in parallel, utilizing multiple core/CPU of server hardware.
Because of fast query processing being available to data analysis, it is an ideal data warehouse server.
With Parallel Universe, you’ll also be able to deploy less costly server hardware for the same query load/task.
Parallel Universe is released under the GPL license and fully compatible with MySQL and
Percona servers.
