New input from NGI_CH:
Currently at CSCS the solutions in use are: ''CREAM JobWrapper'' and ''ARC custom submission scripts''. Those solutions are obviously middleware specific.


The custom TMPDIR should be used also to solve the local disk throughput limits: with 16 or 32 cores the local disk can be stressed beyond its limit, and high performance network file systems have better performance.
