I think the qstat usage is treated the same way; I documented that after
checking.  [I recently modified qacct to print the resource request
too.]

I'd have said they're not the same generally.  The reserved granted
resources are a subset of the requested ones.  Even an h_vmem request,

as advance reservation.)
