Sorry, I probably should have cut and pasted that information.  All the 
jobs have finished, but I believe they all said something like "waiting 
on storage device", if it happens again, I will make sure to save the 
scheduler output and send it.

I don't believe any of the jobs wrote to the same volume.

Hmm, You say "AllowMixedPriority=yes", the docs and my conf files say 
"Allow Mixed Priority = yes".  Do the white spaces matter?  Maybe I 
should try it the way you have it here.  I also have this specified for 
every job I have, I wasn't sure if I could put it in the JobsDef or not. 
  If the way I have it spelled in my conf files is fine, then it sounds 
like it could be a bug.
