> As per HADOOP-4035, the Capacity Scheduler should return no task to a TT if a
> job's high mem requirements are not met. This doesn't always happen. In the
> Scheduler's assignTasks() method, if a job's map task does not enough memory
> to run, the Scheduler looks at reduce tasks, and vice-versa. This can result
> in a case where a reduce task from another job is returned to the TT (if the
> high-mem job does not have a reduce task to run, for example), thus starving
> the high-mem job.
