It lets you send a bunch of jobs to condor-g and let condor-g handle load 
management, as OSG prefers. If Condor-G submits more jobs then yes; but in 
my relatively short testing, I haven't seen it be particularly 
enthusiastic about sending in large numbers of jobs. However, it gives me 
more confidence for the future about testing larger loads on OSG because 
Swift can use the OSG recommended mechanism, rather than a mechanism that 
is specifically disrecommended.

Probably not though I have not tried it. What I think is likely to break 
is, I think, straightforward plumbing work, not some great conceptual 
design problem, so I think if someone actually pays attention to making it 
work, it should not be too hard. In the end, it looks mostly like regular 
gram2 execution.
