However, it seems to be different because this morning the giant suite was running although a hammer suite was scheduled before it (for instance http://pulpito.ceph.com/teuthology-2015-03-22_23:18:01-multimds-hammer-testing-basic-multi/) and was still waiting.

I would not dare zap/kill a LTS point release run ;-)

Right ! It shows at http://qa-proxy.ceph.com/teuthology/loic-2015-03-22_18:50:00-rgw-giant-backports---basic-multi/815885/orig.config.yaml (which was a --priority 101 indeed because it was a single job suite for which I wanted results fast). 

I'll try to re-schedule with --priority 2000 then hoping it will go last. 

Cheers
