Short summary
Earth System Model workflows commonly run on highly congested high-performance computing platforms, meaning that each individual workflow task potentially faces lengthy waiting times in the queues of the schedulers. In this work, we evaluate the task aggregation approach in EC-Earth3 workflows to reduce the queue times and, consequently, the total execution time. The results show up to 23% more simulated years over the same time span, with queuing times reduced by up to a factor of 12.33.
