This comes to 35M core hours in the coming year. With contributions from CMU and a few of our smaller collaborators, we might get to 50M this year. So that would be my range for the coming year, 35M - 50M. Beyond that, we need to start planning now on how we are going to grow. But it will be a challenge to ramp up from ~1Mhr over the past year to 40Mhr. We will need to demonstrate our ability to effectively consume this much simulation before looking for more resources.</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">-Richard</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jun 8, 2018 at 3:53 PM, David Lawrence <span dir="ltr" class=""><<a href="mailto:davidl@jlab.org" target="_blank" class="">davidl@jlab.org</a>></span> wrote:<br class=""><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space" class="">Hi Richard,<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""> I recall you giving a number at one time for how many CPU hours we might reasonably</div><div class="">expect to get out of the OSG in a year.
