So the way we handle it is that we give a blanket fairshare to everyone but
then dial in our TRES charge back on a per partition basis based on
hardware. Our fairshare doc has a fuller explanation:

Thanks Paul!
For what it's worth, I used to do it that way on gridengine, but then had
to switch to a multiple project scheme (which was easier to do, as it has
groups of users).
I forget why we moved - I think it was because who used each partition was
was orthogonal to who paid for it, but both sets of hardware was busy.
In this case, I think I can safely move back to scaling down the partition
charge :)
Cheers,
