→Billing units formula
A job that reserves one CPU and 4G of RAM and runs for one minute consumes 1 billing unit.
One CPU and 10G of RAM for one minute? 2.15 billing units.
Our '''GPU-equipped nodes ''' have 40 CPUs, 186G of RAM, and two GPUs. To use one of these nodes for 24 hours would cost
MAX( 40, 186*0.215, 2*35 ) * 24 * 60 = 70 * 24 * 60 = 100800 billing units.
The rate per GB of RAM is chosen so that using either all the CPUs or all the RAM on a basic node costs the same 40 billing units.
Requesting all the memory on a '''high-memory node''' costs 80 billing units per minute.
You can see the billing ''rate'' for a live job like so:
