Jobs will be run immediately, but output from jobs will only be
printed when JobSlots more jobs has been started. E.g. if you have 10
jobslots then the output from the first completed job will only be
printed when job 11 is started.
You have to submit JobSlot number of jobs before they will start, and
after that you can submit one at a time, and job will start
immediately if free slots are available. Output from the running or
completed jobs are held back and will only be printed when JobSlots
more jobs has been started (unless you use --ungroup or -u, in which
case the output from the jobs are printed immediately). E.g. if you
have 10 jobslots then the output from the first completed job will
only be printed when job 11 has started, and the output of second
completed job will only be printed when job 12 has started.

and processing it immediately may be faster than first unpacking all
files. Set up the dir processor as above and unpack into the dir.
Using GNU Parallel as dir processor has the same limitations as using
GNU Parallel as queue system/batch manager.
