    Hi Marco,
    
    Thank you for the note, I think you have discovered a bug.  I will
    make a ticket for this bug and we will hopefully squash it soon.
    
    In the meantime, there is an easy workaround by using the "-a"
    command line option before your memory request; the following
    command will work as you expect:
    
       condor_submit -i -a request_memory=700G
    
    Hope the above helps,
    Todd
