[Clusterusers] request for CPU time

[Jaime Dávila]

Thank you Bassam, Lee, and everyone else. It is greatly appreciated. I'll let everyone know as soon as I'm done with these final runs.

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.
