Did those jobs share nodes -- sometimes two or more jobs using the same nodes? I am sure SGI has such users too, though such job mixes make the runtimes of specific jobs less obvious, so customers are more tolerant of variations and some inefficiencies, as they get hidden in the mix.
In other words, Rik, both yes and no ;). Both sorts of HPC loads exist, sharing nodes and a dedicated set of nodes for each job.
