I would like to be able to create a rush group that would limit the number of CPUs to be used in a specific job.

Here's my problem: I need to be able to use all of the CPUs on a host for rendering with XSI, but I also need to be able to use those same muli-cpu hosts with an application that work using only one CPU.

So, I'd like to retain the multiple processors for XSI jobs, but use a single processor for another type of job, on the same set of hosts. I know I can describe the host's CPUs in the rush.conf file, but is there a way to make rush think the host only has one processor when it's using a specific group?

Best,
