Today the combined work effort of our clusters reached 10 years worth of processing time, that is the equivalent of one processor working continuously for 10 years. We only started taking on serious workloads in April this year so while this is not a huge milestone compared to other well established institutes it's a gratifying achievement given our relative short term exposure to HPC.
The graphs below are the total number of jobs submitted to our two clusters. Many of the jobs submitted to the grid cluster are probe jobs from international projects checking on our system status, so while there have been more jobs on this cluster the predominant amount of work has been done on our HPC cluster.

Grid cluster:
Given our new application porting strategy for grid based projects we are hoping to see a significant increase in jobs submitted to our grid cluster in the next few months.
