[Swift-user] jobsPerNode

If I look at this line:

<profile namespace="globus" key="jobsPerNode">24</profile> <!-- remains constant for Beagle -->

I assume I have to interpret this as:
1) If I want to pack as many jobs as possible (i.e., if I don't have memory issues, which unfortunately Matlab is excellent at creating)
2) If my jobs are single-threaded

I wanted to make sure that this was not a setting that would be used for combining both threads and repetitions.

What would I do if I want to repeat much larger chunks, e.g., I want to make a parameter swift in NAMD where each sim will be run on 20 nodes concurrently?

If you have a pointer for where I can find the answer, I will go there.
