I finally found out that this native specification is NOT about the native
parameters of slurm.
It comes from the DRMA-"wrapper" of slurm:
http://apps.man.poznan.pl/trac/slurm-drmaa/wiki/WikiStart#Nativespecification
And this does not support mem-per-cpu.
Which is a huge restriction.

The logger seems to print drmaa because it is the base class of the
SlurmRunner.

Anybody stumbled upon this before?
A way would be to have a slurm runner that uses native calls instead of
drmaa.
Pros/Cons?
Any opinions on this topic? Or solutions to get the mem-per-cpu option?
I read, that this is criticised by some people from the slurm-drmaa
community too.
Patches are available, but not included in a release.

Best,
Alexander
