Hi,
I know I raised this question many times before, but I think I need a  
solution to it very soon (=now). I have a machinery in place to do a  
really big runs for MolDyn. Currently, the workflow produces about  
0.9GB of data for each molecule, but this is all the intermediate  
data, all I need is *one* 300K file as a result (per molecule). The  
rest is intermediate data that I do not need.  So my questions are:
1. How can I eliminate the intermediate results staging back to my  
submit host? I do not need it in case of one remote compute pool. VDS  
had this feature...
2. If implementing this feature is very hard and time-consuming --  
what submit host would you recommend for a 244-molecule run ? Roughly  
244 GB of space is needed.
A 20-molecule run is all I can do on wiggum (where the application  
code is currently compiled).
Thanks!
Nika
