Lines: 11 Just specifying -Ogv wil generate vector code and no cocurrency code. However, the scheduler you posted still had classes 2 and 3 on the complex. Therefore, when the complex switches on during its time slice, it will see that it has a class 2 job (vector) and try to run it. I agree that it is not the most intuitive apporach, but that is how the Alliant scheduler does things...
