[Condor-devel] sorting of groups in negotiation cycle

[Dan Bradley <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Erik,

There is a user who is complaining of a group getting starved (using 
Condor 7.6.0).  I notice that this group has a small quota and in 
negotiation cycles that I have observed, it seems this group is getting 
considered after some other groups, even though the starved group is 
using 0 slots and the others are using > 0 slots.

It used to be the case that groups were sorted by the fraction of their 
quota that they were using.  Those starving the most were considered 
first.  I don't spot anywhere in the code where it is now sorting in 
this way.  Am I overlooking something?  Or has this intentionally changed?
