Re: running, high priority

Can you hit the column header of the Report Deadline column and see what happens to those 2 HP jobs? What does their date due say? I think it says 6 September which is today, so your client has put these jobs into Earliest Deadline First (EDF) since it always wants to complete a job 24 hours BEFORE the deadline.

Why you got these? Well your worker is a good worker and is known to the servers to return results quickly so your worker was chosen to do these speed tasks.

BUT, if this client was off say the past 10 days with those 2 jobs sitting in your buffer since August 28, the same happens. The client computed that these tasks were at risk of not meeting deadline. Hence the HP treatment.

There are more reason though.

Some reading on the client scheduling:
