If everyone is doing this, it's no wonder there are problems. I have 24 jobs queued up which is enough for a day, and usually what it stays at. That has to be over-taxing the server... What can I do?

We probably overwhelmed it, no? We had some more nasty hard drive errors. We just took the new drive out to run some diagnostics on it, and everything checked out so labstaff thinks we have a problem with the controller. Looks like we're going to have to order more hardware before things get running really smoothly :( I've started sending work back out but if the machine crashes again I think we're going to have to wait until we have a new controller.
