I don't know if Torque's built in pbs_sched can do that, but Maui
should be able to set per user or group limits using MAXPROC, e.g.:

USERCFG[csamuel] MAXPROC=15

to limit me to using just 15 CPUs at any one time..

It's probably worth looking at upgrading to 2.1.10 for the bug
fixes that are in there.
