Comment (by mthomas):
I used the rate limit mechanism i built into simfactory a few revisions ago to accomplish this. When this timestamp exists, simfactory under no condition will attempt to clean up the simulation until this timestamp reaches a certain age. The only change I had to make was when makeActive() is called by a restart (a restart gets flagged as active), I create the timestamp in the simulation. This ensures that any change to active prevents cleanup for at least 30 seconds.
I understand what you're saying, though, and I'll separate the simulation submission process from the cleanup rate limiting mechanism. I'll commit that change shortly.
