BTW, with Falkon, you do not have to package many jobs together to increase efficiency, every job gets handled separately and things are still quite efficient. We have some applications that have job durations in the 10~100 ms range, and for those, we do package multiple jobs together to decrease the overhead per job, but this is done all internal within Falkon by setting some configuration options. More details about all these are in the paper.
