Hi Peter, The last time you sent me an email, I ran the "ps" and "top" command and didn't see any jobs under my name that were running. Do you know of another command name I should use OR the process ID of my processes so I can kill it? FYI...I do have some valid processes running that I kicked off last night. Thanks, Michelle From: Przemyslaw Zalewski (RIT Student) Sent: Tue 4/1/2008 12:34 PM To: Michelle Brown (RIT Student) Cc: Marcin Lukowiak; Charles J Gruener Subject: VLSI Machine (2nd time around) Hey Michelle, I was wondering if its possible for you to terminate your idle jobs after they are done? Currently one of your processes is taking up 5.2GB of RAM, and has been idle a few hours. My processes require a lot of RAM as well, and it would be nice if they didn't have to swap (and therefore take significantly longer to complete). Thanks. Peter Z.
