What to do with processing power to get some money with little hassle?

Are there startups or individuals looking for HPC or technical computing resources on an occasional basis? I'm thinking along the lines of high memory, FPGAs, Phi cards, IB networks and the like.

could you please be more specific ?

Are you thinking of something like http://folding.stanford.edu/client , but with money?

yes ... or mining or anything else ...
