Provide a formula that is used to calculate job execution priority.
You can choose to use a formula to sort jobs at the finest-granularity level. When
the scheduler sorts jobs according to the formula, it computes a priority for each
job. The priority computed for each job is the value produced by the formula. Jobs
with a higher value get higher priority.
