Re: 1., both SLURM and Grid Engine are performant and well-known
batch-queueing systems; there are mailing lists and a number of
introductory pages written by various computing centres.

I understand that Google Genomics recommends using Grid Engine since
some bioinformatics software comes with Grid Engine support "out of the box".

Re: 2.,  the general answer is that it depends on the application and
the scheduler.  This page is still a good introduction to Grid Engine
usage and should be enough to get you started:
http://star.mit.edu/cluster/docs/0.93.3/guides/sge.html

The Grid Engine users mailing list is a good place to ask questions on
Grid Engine: https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hope this helps,
Riccardo
