Interesting! I have made sure that the machine is in 
properly cooled environment. The serial jobs works fine, its 
only the parallel jobs which have problems. Even 2-4 serial 
jobs work fine when they are run at the same time so I am 
not entirely convinced that this might be a heating issue 
(or maybe it is).

Has anybody seen this before (the effect of temperature on 
parallel jobs)?

Thanks
