Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-4035:
--------------------------------------
Allen> I think the system should be smart enough that if I specify "4g" or "4m"
or "4k" it knows what I'm talking about.
Steve> There's a lot to be said for configuration languages with basic math
operators [ ... ]
These sound like great enhancements to the Configuration API. The getInt() and
getLong() methods could implement these. But that should probably be in a
separate issue. And, if it's to be implemented, the parameter in this issue
should then be raw bytes, no?

> 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.
