[Swift-user] Swift/PBS Scheduler Slow to Report "Finished"?

I will definitely have to try that. Now I think I understand the  
benefits of that approach. Sending the data back is important.
I do have a question though. In the Swift user guide, it states: "CoG  
coasters provide a low-overhead job submission and
file transfer mechanism suited for the execution of short jobs (on the  
order of a few seconds) and the transfer of small files
(on the order of a few kilobytes)."

If I want to use coasters with longer jobs, with the transfer of large  
files, will that be a problem/be ill-suited with this approach?
I know that our goal is to work with much, much larger files down the  
road, and much longer jobs.

Thank you both, Michael and Mihael, for your assistance in this  
matter. I really do appreciate it very much.

Regards,

Andrew Boyce
