Hi!

I believe this is my fault. I've been running some items in parallel for 
class. I believe only one session ran away (1+ hours) while the others were 
< 10 minutes. Sorry for the trouble, I didn't realize there was a negative 
impact on others / the infrastructure. In the future I'll run processor 
intensive items on my local machine.

Incidentally I am unable to login to Juliabox now (is this related?). I 
have not backed up my work to github and as such would respectfully request 
the ability to copy my files over if I have been banned from the service. 
Some of them have due dates :).

Cheers,

_Chris
