[torqueusers] Torque not killing job exceeding memoryrequested

[Nick Sonneveld]

Sorry to piggyback on, but I have similar issues.

eg this job:
whiteout:/var/spool/torque/server_priv # qstat -f 1925 | grep mem
     resources_used.mem = 54043696kb   *this is about 51gigs
     resources_used.vmem = 58629088kb
     Resource_List.mem = 1gb

I am using pbs_sched though and I've heard mentions throughout the list 
that it doesn't look at things like memory.  Should we consider maui?
