     Closer.  No cigar yet.  Some jobs seem to get stuck in Q state if
too many are queued at once.  For example, I have three nodes,
queueing 4 jobs does the right thing in that one cpu from each node
was sceduled before the second cpu on any node was scheduled.  However
queueing 5 jobs put two in Q state and left them there.
