Following recent incidents we would like to remind you as well as stress that our terminal servers plimpy.ethz.ch and plompy.ethz.ch must not be used for long running or resource demanding computation jobs. Please use our computation node plumpy.ethz.ch instead.

In order to relieve our Terminal Server plimpy of some of its computational burden, we assigned it a new sidekick specifically targeted at number crunching tasks: plumpy.ethz.ch

So if you've been using plimpy to perform calculations in the past, please ssh into plumpy from now on and do your work there. This should make both you and the plimpy users happy. Thank you.
