If nothing is requested, the default duration defined in `qconf -ssconf` in the 
line "default_duration" is used. important to note is, that SGE judges 
INIFINITY being smaller than INIFINITY and as a result jobs running with 
INIFINITY walltime will allow other jobs to use slots up to their completion - 
i.e. for INIFINITY.
