Heh. You think 55% is bad? with the 48 core servers, and esp. with the 64
core ones, when someone's running a job on the cluster, under no
circumstances can I have more than three servers plugged into a 3000...
and even then, I've seen it around 90%. I still don't believe that it
would be run dry in 2-3 seconds.

And I'm still perturbed about it still telling me it's shutting down.
Haven't figured out how to tell that to stop.
