<pre>I have rebooted compute-1-17. That should fix that. (Apologies to Piper,
who had a maxwell job running. You'll have to retry that one)
The other problem is that some nodes are actually out of memory because
of the insanely intensive rendering jobs that are running on them. We
could play with minimum free memory required to take new jobs.... how
much RAM do you think is necessary? Right now it's set to 1GB. Maybe I
should try changing it to 2GB or 4GB?
