Hello,

I'm playing around with the Capacity Scheduler (coming from the Fair
Scheduler), and it appears that a queue with jobs submitted by the same user
are treated as FIFO.  So, for example, if I submit job1 and job2 to the
"low" queue as "matt" job1 will run to completion before job2 starts.

Is there a way to share the resources in the queue between the 2 jobs when
they both come from the same user?

Thanks!

No.  You'll need a different queue.
