Hey, don't be too quick on your judgement :) We are using torque
(and maui) on three HPC setups, though we had to patch torque for
various features.

By the way, what scheduler/resource manager are you using for HPC?
slurm ebuild seems to be even in worse state than torque one (2.6.3
is present, 16.05.0 is the latest upstream).
