[Clusterusers] request for CPU time

[Wm. Josiah Erikson]

MacOSX, but yes. Can't remember right now if it's case-sensitive or not. 
Maybe you discovered that it wasn't.

I'm writing because I am about to finish writing a paper for a conference, due on December 20th (Friday of next week), and I could use as many CPU cycles as I can get. Right now the processes that tend to run are taking 30-45 minutes, as opposed to the 15-20 minutes that they often take. I'm not sure if others are working on a deadline too, but would it be possible for others to wait until after the 20th to start new jobs? It would make a difference. Of course, I do realize that everyone might have deadlines right now, in which case we should all carry on as we are.
