You might get more reliable start time predictions if you use something 
like

RESERVATIONPOLICY       CURRENTHIGHEST
RESERVATIONDEPTH[DEFAULT] 15

and then checkjob -v and look at the Reservation line in the output. I 
don't know whether showstart gives the same info as checkjob -v in that 
case.

The above configuration causes Maui to keep advance reservations for the 
15 highest priority jobs in the queue. This will affect backfill if you 
have it enabled, but - as far as I know - has no side effects otherwise.
