On 1 September 2026 the <a href="https://github.com/DataBiosphere/toil">DataBiosphere/toil</a> tree <a href="https://github.com/DataBiosphere/toil/commit/a9681fe077c15fff10f583478a8cb7ecf444c278">gained <code>--doubleTime</code></a>, an opt in flag that retries a timed out job with twice the walltime. The same change teaches Slurm to report a timeout as <code>TIMELIMIT</code> instead of a generic kill, which is the signal the retry path actually needs.</p>
