I have never done this but setting "OverSubscribe" in the appropriate place might be what you are looking for. https://slurm.schedmd.com/cons_res_share.html Personally, however, I would be a bit wary of doing this. What if someone does start a multithreaded process on purpose or by accident? Wouldn't just using cgroups on your login node achieve what you want?
