First, just wanted to say I love the BioWDL project. Very helpful and the code is well organized. I am having trouble getting any BioWDL tasks to run on a cromwell instance on AWS. It seems to work fine if the runtime memory is changed to "3G" or some string with a "GB" or "MB" unit, but fails if the current setup with an integer value is used. Is there a setting I should be using on cromwell to default the units to GB? Mind sharing what that runtime value is? I can't seem to find anything in the cromwell docs. Thanks

We should change memory runtime attributes to strings so this works cross-platform.
