Hello, sorry I'd rather avoid adding new dependency, but happy to have a paragraph in the documentation to show how it can be used |

clusterscope has an API to calculate proportionate resource usage in the machine (CPUs / Mem) given the number of GPUs or CPUs.
that is, for GPU requests:
if a slurm partition has nodes with 8 gpus, 80 cpus, 80GB; and a user ask for a single gpu:
clusterscope returns a dict with 10 cpus (1/8 gpus * 80 cpus) and 10GB (1/8 gpus * 80GB) assigned:
notice how this dict allocates the proportionate amount of cpus and mem based on the number of gpus in the request.
