[slurm-dev] Difference between sacct's AllocCPUS and NCPUS?

[Bjørn-Helge Mevik]

What is the difference between the output fields 'AllocCPUS' and 'NCPUS'
in sacct?  man sacct says:

    alloccpus Count of allocated processors.
    ncpus     Total number of CPUs allocated to the job.

I cannot figure out what the difference is.  (This is on slurm 2.5.7.)
