Is anyone successfully using org-babel for research that involves calculations that typically take a few minutes up to several hours on a single CPU (i.e. up to a few minutes on a cluster)? It seems to me that currently org-babel is not well suited for such an usage profile, but I’d love to be taught otherwise. Many thanks, Christoph
