 One complexity of high performance computing is the heterogeneous environments presented by different resources with different core software installations and local setups. For example, Einstein Toolkit codes require compiling with MPI and then running the resulting application in a batch queue. This complexity is hidden as much as possible in Cactus and accompanying tools such as the Simulation Factory.
