phordee commented 3 years ago

+1 for being able to prompt on launch. I'd like to have the additional flexibility to configure how many splices a job can run on depending on the criticality of the window we're running in. For example, if the template is in a workflow then it may be necessary to execute the job quicker with a higher number of splices vs running the job on its own where we don't care about the runtime.
