Greetings SP User,

Recently NERSC implemented a batch queue class to help backfill idle
time associated with system downtimes. Right now is a excellent time to
utilize this class as the machine is idling for a system outage.

You should see very good turn around time in this class for a wide range
of job sizes while the machine is draining for this afternoon's downtime.

Regards,

David Skinner
