Resource allocated on Ares doesn't use normalization, which was used by Prometheus and previous clusters. 1 hour of CPU time equals 1 hour spent on a computing core, similar to GPU time. Resources used to calculate account billing include CPUs, memory, and GPUs. Jobs on CPU partitions are always billed in CPU hours, while jobs on GPU partitions are always billed in GPU hours. If your job uses the default amount of memory per core, or less, then the job is billed simply for the time spent using CPUs. If the job uses more memory for each allocated CPU than the proportional amount (consult the table above), then the job will be billed as it would use more CPUs. The amount billed can be calculated by dividing the memory used by the proportional memory per core. The same principle applies to GPUs, where a GPU has the respective amount of memory per GPU and CPUs per GPU. The cost of running a job can be expressed as a simple algorithm for CPUs:
