User Priorities in Condor, cont.

• Condor continuously adjusts user priorities over time

  • machines allocated > priority, priority worsens
  • machines allocated < priority, priority improves

• Priority Preemption

  • Higher priority users will grab machines away from lower priority users (thanks to Checkpointing…)
  • Starvation is prevented
  • Priority “thrashing” is prevented
