Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-3759:
-------------------------------------
Regarding deprecation, here is a way to handle this case. If the new option is
defined in this jira is enabled (by default it is disabled), then the ulimit
for memory is not applied when the task is launched. If the new option is
disabled (the tasktracker has a negative number for max mem), then we apply the
ulimit settings (as it is done today)...
> Provide ability to run memory intensive jobs without affecting other running
> tasks on the nodes

> In HADOOP-3581, we are discussing how to prevent memory intensive tasks from
> affecting Hadoop daemons and other tasks running on a node. A related
> requirement is that users be provided an ability to run jobs which are memory
> intensive. The system must provide enough knobs to allow such jobs to be run
> while still maintaining the requirements of HADOOP-3581.
