The resource that affects dispatching is processor-equivalent hours.

Changed:

<
< Processor-equivalent hours refers to number of processors your job will take away from the pool of resources. With small memory jobs, processor-equivalent hours are the same as processor hours, however, with high memory jobs, the memory left on a node becomes insufficient for the other processors to be utilized. the QDR nodes have 24 GB for 12 processors. Therefore there is 2GB for processor. If you use X GB, you will be counted as using max(# processors requested, X/2).
