small*	1 day	24	128	< 123	24	59	10

*The small, normal, large, high memory and GPU queues are all accessed via defaultQ. You cannot directly request these queues.
The interactive queue is requested using the qsub -I command via the command line. You cannot request interactive access with #PBS -q interactive.
The maximum number of jobs a user can have queued is 200 in defaultQ.
The maximum number of cores one user can simultaneously use is 600.
Array jobs are limited to 1000 elements.
small, normal, large require max 20GB per core.
N/A = Not Applicable.
