 ===Proper Queue Selection===
 [[https://hpcwiki.uark.edu/doku.php?id=slurm_queues/ |Job queues]] determine which specific resources a user can request, both in terms of run time and specific hardware. AHPCC requires that users select the appropriate queue for their job submissions at all times. Jobs that are incorrectly submitted to queues that don't match the application will be killed by administrators. Submitting to alternate queues just because the appropriate queue is busy is not allowed!
-  * **Cloud Queue** - If you are using a serial (non-parallel) task, submit to this queue as it is designated for this purpose specifically.
+  * **Cloud Queue** - If you are using a serial (non-parallel) job **OR** if you need less than 32 cores for your job, submit to this queue as it is designated for this purpose specifically.
+  * **Comp Queues** - These queues require that you request and utilize the full compliment of cores available on the resource.
   * **Himem Queues** - Don't submit jobs to this queue unless you truly need greater than 192GB of memory. If unsure, first test on a Comp queue to see if your task runs out of memory before migrating to the Himem queues.
   * **GPU Queues** - Do not submit to the GPU queues unless you are certain that your application/task can effectively utilize the GPU hardware. AHPCC staff can help you evaluate your code if needed.
