Even that won't help if the MPI launcher uses SSH to farm
jobs out (such as with commercial codes like Fluent, etc).

I did try and figure out at one point if pam_torque would
be able to change the control group or cpuset of the SSH
session it was being used to authenticate/authorise, but
without success.
