What we have done is limiting the number of jobs that an user can submit in
an execution queue, eg: (200 node cluster):
* we have two execution queues just for administration:
* q_serial --> set queue q_parallel max_user_queuable = 120
* q_parallel --> set queue q_parallel max_user_queuable = 60
* batch queue, is a routing queue.
When one user submits more then 120 jobs for the serial queue. Torque will
hold the jobs in the batch queue which is a routing queue. Maui does not
process jobs that are in a routing queue. With this setup users can submit
a lot of jobs and maui still process the jobs.
