[HTCondor-users] integer overflow with default_max_jobs_running



Hi,

We are hitting a bug with large memory machines where MaxJobsRunning is defaulted to a negative number.  I believe this is due to the fact that the default_max_jobs_running is calculated as:

 int default_max_jobs_running = sysapi_phys_memory_raw_no_param()*4096/400;

With large amounts of physical memory (in our case 1TB), the value overflows and becomes negative causing the comparison that happens immediately after to return false:

if( default_max_jobs_running > 10000) {
        default_max_jobs_running = 10000;
}

Thanks,
-Ben
