Hi Ole Tange, I think something is weird regarding this new feature in GNU Parallel (#42983). I just received some complaints from the administrator here at the computer lab and then I ssh-ed into some remote machines to see what was happening: there were tons of processes running on a single machine, far more than the amount of specified slots!
Not only that, but also stopping GNU Parallel on the local machine didn't stop the inconvenient remote processes. Do you have a clue about what is wrong here? Maybe GNU Parallel is constantly duplicating deactivated hosts when they show up again? -- Douglas A. Augusto
