Beginning Monday June 21, changes will be made to the backfill scheduling
algorithm. These changes will only affect jobs for INCITE projects with
negative balances. Priority in the backfill queue will now be assigned inversely
proportional to the amount of negative balance accrued, as a percentage of the
project's original awarded allocation. Projects with a higher negative balance
percentage will receive lower priority in the backfill queue and likely see
longer backfill queue wait times. Please note that the number of jobs a user may
have in the backfill queue is limited to 10, and the number of running jobs is
limited to 5.
