Hello,

I am trying to set up condor on several dedicated machines, i.e. condor could use all CPU power. However, it turns out that many times the condor jobs only use a few percent CPU power: Using top, the state of the jobs is mostly "D" and "S", and only sometimes "R" (=running).

Any ideas?
I am using ubuntu 10.4 with condor 7.2.4.

Are you really running a CPU intensive job?  In other words, if you run the job outside of condor, how much CPU does it take up?
