Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-4035:
---------------------------------------

Actually, I think it makes a lot more sense to make this act like HADOOP-657 
did with disk space. Where we just don't assign tasks if there isn't enough 
memory (or disk space) left for it to run.

> Modify the capacity scheduler (HADOOP-3445) to schedule tasks based on memory 
> requirements and task trackers free memory

> HADOOP-3759 introduced configuration variables that can be used to specify 
> memory requirements for jobs, and also modified the tasktrackers to report 
> their free memory. The capacity scheduler in HADOOP-3445 should schedule 
> tasks based on these parameters. A task that is scheduled on a TT that uses 
> more than the default amount of memory per slot can be viewed as effectively 
> using more than one slot, as it would decrease the amount of free memory on 
> the TT by more than the default amount while it runs. The scheduler should 
> make the used capacity account for this additional usage while enforcing 
> limits, etc.
