Hi Kendall, I'd recommend: 1. skip nbatch entirely, just use nproc to control the number of jobs. 2. If you are running rebuild_in_place=False, then use nproc=4. Any more won't make any difference. 3. If rebuild_in_place=True, use nproc=5. 4. If doing an omit map, use nproc = 5 * number of omit regions (so typically 100) I hope that helps! -Tom On Jan 20, 2011, at 6:49 AM, Kendall Nettles wrote:

Dear PHENIX developers, I’m preparing a bunch autobuild runs. If I submit 20 autobuild jobs to our 100 node cluster, what would you recommend for nproc and nbatch? How about for 10 jobs at once?
