Currently a toollabs user has no influence of the order jobs are executed. Please also set weight_priority so that users intended priority of jobs is respected, too. My problem was that i submitted two array tasks with hold_jid_ad dependency A[i]->B[i]. All tasks of job A were scheduled before any task of job B started because Job B was submitted 3 seconds after A and so has a lower waiting time priority. Because A creates large temporary files which B reads and deletes, i prefer runnable B tasks to have a higher priority than not started A task. There i also many other cases where i prefer influencing job priority a bit. Current config: $ qconf -ssconf policy_hierarchy OFS weight_ticket 0.500000 weight_waiting_time 0.278000 weight_deadline 3600000.000000 weight_urgency 0.500000 weight_priority 0.000000 Maybe 0.1 for weight_priority.
Changed per request.
