Hello,
   We have some questions on the basic functionality of the backfill scheduler. 
 In the man page it says the following:

"Backfill scheduling will initiate lower-priority jobs if doing so does not delay 
the expected initiation time of any higher priority job."

Could someone point me to the code block that enforces this? Specifically, if 
the highest priority job cannot run currently due to a lack of available 
resources, is a reservation made or some sort of other limit placed on what 
backfill jobs can be run on the nodes that the above high priority job will be 
running on in the future?

Thanks

Martins
