[gridengine users] sanity check on usage of "-p" priority value: per-user effect or global across waitlist?

[Fritz Ferstl]

I'm always interested ;-) - hence I'm still involved after more than 20 
years ...

As I wrote, I'd look into the functional policy.

Or if you are using fairshare, as Chris writes, then you might be able 
to mix this through the weighting with the -p prio to get something 
similar to what you want.

Cheers,

Fritz
