Re: [Condor-devel] cpu-seconds in startd slot stats?



Hi Dan,

I don't particularly like this - anytime one changes the meaning of an attribute, someone pops up a few months later complaining they were using the original value.  Sometimes that someone is me :) [but not in this case]

What value does this add if SlotWeight is also available in the ad?

Changes to the number of cpus associated with a slot happen only in specific places in our code, whereas the value of SlotWeight could change at any time and so would require appropriate treatment.
