Yo,

These things are very useful.  In particular they show how difficult it 
is to compare numbers coming from one group of people.  Just compare the 
information today for ATLAS and LHCb ...

The total success rate of ATLAS was 63% and 76% of the jobs that 
succeeded, succeeded only after resubmission.

In the same day, LHCb reported 91% success, and none of the successful 
jobs required resubmission.

Closer inspection shows that the data for ATLAS and LHCb jobs going thru 
the brokers gdrb01 and gdrb02 at CERN are essentially identical; the bad 
ATLAS results are due to heavy use of gdrb09 and gdrb10, which both had 
extremely poor reliability.
