As someone interested in this when it comes as 7.0.0

Ooooh - would i be interpreting this correctly by thinking this means
you can run a submit which dumps to a file which can then be
programmatically trickled into the queue yourself? Or have I missed

Thank you. much nicer to manage

Worth knowing about. If I had (say) a dedicated windows multi cpu
submit machine with fast (Gigabit) network to a few hundred execute
nodes which could all activate at once can I push the default higher
than 10 and if so what number would you suggest :)

On windows does it still need the desktop heap?

If you have I'm impressed, and look forward to mails to the list of
"My job ran but I can't access the resulting files in explorer"  :)

script the submit and parse the output)
