ADE XL: Limiting the max number of jobs in Local simulation mode?

Hello.

Is there a way to set a hard limit to the max number of parallel jobs in local simulation mode in ADE XL?

I have had situations where I enter a large number (say 50) in "Max. Jobs"  in Job Policy Setup and forget to change the Distribution Method from Local to LBS.  If I launch simulations with this, my local workstation locks up as all of the memory and CPU resources are taken up and the only solution is hard resetting the computer.

Alternatively, it would be nice if I can set different job policies to testbench debug (single run) and batch simulations.

Thanks
