All jobs must at least contain informations about
maximum runtime
(h_rt) and peak memory usage (virtual_free). This information
may get obligatory in future. Currently only a warning message
is shown. You also have to request other resources like sql
connections, free temp space, etc. if these are needed by your
job. Please read documentation on toolserverwiki i have updated today:
<https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Job_scheduling> This currently
contains the main informations you need to know, but maybe i add some
more examples later.
Thank you for your efforts. It would be sad to see SGE go because
lack of proper maintenance. I already got used to it and currently
I submit all my (even on-off) SQL queries by qsub.
I have one question that is vaguely related problem related to
the virtual memory size.
Does anyone have some reasonable values for virtual memory limits
(and other resources as well) for interwiki.py?
On tools.wikimedia.pl (a small toolserver box run by Wikimedia Poland)
we run some interwiki bots and I am slowly getting crazy to figure
out correct values for this. As far as I can see, for interwiki.py
the sky is the limit.
Any hints how to gauge virtual memory usage given some set of input
data? We run bots not only for wikipedia but also for wiktionary.
