Hi Will,

as long as you do not submit massive number of jobs as root, there should be no problem. This is only a priority thing, so root will have a fairly high priority, it does not mean, the users can only use half of your cluster.

It it OK that 'root' user has what looks like 50% shares of the entire cluster, 
leaving the other 50% to all the other users? If it's not an issue, OK, but if 
it is, any way to reduce the 'root' share?

Thanks,
Will
