Fix the 'cluster drain' problem in the Capacity Scheduler wrt High RAM Jobs
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-5964
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5964
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: contrib/capacity-sched
    Affects Versions: 0.20.0
            Reporter: Arun C Murthy
             Fix For: 0.21.0


When a HighRAMJob turns up at the head of the queue, the current implementation 
of support for HighRAMJobs in the Capacity Scheduler has problem in that the 
scheduler stops assigning tasks to all TaskTrackers in the cluster until a 
HighRAMJob finds a suitable TaskTrackers for all its tasks.

This causes a severe utilization problem since effectively no new tasks are 
allowed to run until the HighRAMJob (at the head of the queue) gets slots.
