The default queue is set to be the UI queue, which has a 25 running jobs per user limit on Helium and a 10 running jobs per user limit on Neon. In addition, Neon has a high memory queue (UI-HM) with a 4 running jobs per user limit. If you have many single processor jobs to run it would be better to submit them to the all.q queue, which has no limit, but is subordinate /wiki/spaces/hpcdocs/pages/76513448 to the other queues.
