    I’ve noticed that submission of new jobs through mrtool slows down as the number of jobs on the muster que increases.
    As we load our render wall up with thousands of jobs at a time I was wondering if there is anyway to speed up mrtool, or to connect to muster (through commandline) once then send a large number of jobs to the que instead of authenticating and transfering templates with every submission.

    Any thoughts?

    Kind regards,

    Not actually, you need to use mrtool. We have the libMusterClient.lib in the todo list, with also python bindings, then you can connect through c++ or python once, and submit a large amount of jobs.

    If you get in touch with us directly, I may provide the protocol details and/or the sources of mrtool for tweaking
