Let me correct myself. Actually, when starting new jobs GNU Parallel will not check if the total number of running jobs on a host is less than its capacity. Thus, there will be 5 + the number of unfinished jobs running on server5.net, for example. It seems that after rereading an ssh login file, GNU Parallel simply forgets/loses track of the number of jobs still running on each machine. -- Douglas A. Augusto
