<p>Dear Colleagues,</p>
<p>We received 50k Node hours at NERSC for the offsite REST
production in allocation year (AY) 2026. This is significantly
less than we asked for, but should still be nearly enough to
reconstruct the 2025 data set. If we use it all by summer, we can
even apply for more.</p>
<p>I assume, the reduction is in part a result of our usage in
AY2025. So far, we have only used 86kh out of our original award
of 200kh. Thanks to Igal, Chris Larrieu and the JANA2 team, we
managed to optimize the parameters of our production workflows at
the beginning of the year. As a direct result, we were charged far
less hours than originally planned for successfully reconstructing
the full 2023 and 2017 GlueX data sets during this period. We even
processed a fraction of the 2025 data already, and will do so
again with improved calibrations before the end of AY2025
(01/20/26).</p>
<p>Enjoy your holiday break,</p>
<p>Alex</p>
