This is a big part of it. In my lab, I have a lot of grad students who are computational scientists, not computer scientists. The time it will take them to optimize code far exceeds a quick-and-dirty job array on Slurm and then going back to working on the introduction of the paper, or catching up on the literature, or any one of a dozen other things.

Grad student here, I can attest to that.
