[Clusterusers] Switching to new keg

[Thomas Helmuth]

Yeah, sorry I'm hogging the linux nodes right now. I just realized last
night that there are a bunch more GP runs I need to finish for my
dissertation, which I'm trying to finish by the end of June.

Is there something about the minimum RAM that your renders require, or
something like that that might be making them not use the Macs? I think
Josiah was tweaking something like that when some of Jordan's runs were
overflowing memory and causing other things to crash.
