@Markku or @Chrulle

Whether it is possible to unit some short WUs (for example 5 or 10?) into one big package, and then to crunch received big WU a few times, i.e. each small subWU? ;-) Of course with new sixtrack application.

This can reduce a network traffic, I hope.

Most of the short workunits are not known to be short before they are run. They are usually short because they loose all their particals before the requested number of turns are completed.

WUs with 100,000 turns (proone, protwo, protree, profour WUs) are usually very short, isn't it? ;-) And WUs with 1,000,000 turns (i.e. tunescan WUs) are long.

Count of turns is known before send to users. You can see it in fort.3 in TRACKING PARAMETERS group (it seems).

LHC team, is this info not top secret? ;-)
