ARI is the newest computing node

[Benedikt Boecking]

This, along with having the new foxconn node, is a great opportunity for everyone in the lab to start using “nice” when running jobs on the servers. By assigning a low priority to your jobs hat aren’t urgent, the jobs of other users such as the ARI project members are given priority when too many resources are demanded. For more please see:

I would really appreciate if everyone would take a look at this and make a habit of using nice.

Best,
Ben
