In total, the OSG comprises over 25,000 computers with over 43,000 processors, most of which are running a distribution of [[Linux]]<!-- [[Scientific Linux]] ? -->.<ref>{{cite web|last=Gaudin |first=Sharon |title=Worldwide grid evaluating collider test results |work=InfoWorld |accessdate=2009-03-02 |date=2008-11-15 |url=http://www.infoworld.com/news/feeds/08/09/15/Worldwide-grid-evaluating-collider-test-results.html |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20160303215658/http://www.infoworld.com/news/feeds/08/09/15/Worldwide-grid-evaluating-collider-test-results.html |archivedate=March 3, 2016 }}</ref>

===Peerage===
The grid is [[Peer-to-peer|peered]] with other grids, including [[TeraGrid]], [[LHC Computing Grid]], the [[European Grid Infrastructure]], and [[XSEDE]],<ref>{{cite web|title=Open Science Grid User Guide |url=https://www.xsede.org/osg-user-guide}}{{dead link|datedeadurl=Marchyes |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20140808051302/https://www.xsede.org/osg-user-guide |archivedate=August 8, 2014 2016}}</ref> allowing data and resources from those grids to be shared.
