Cos> Sure. Let me take a look.

I am not talking about "other uses". I am talking about bringing 6 HDFS + YARN 
daemons in say 2 GB and then trying to run almost anything on such a cluster. 
This is dreadful to say the least.

So what is the alternative? Not starting them?
I am not sure to follow what you are proposing. Whether the daemons start on 
their own or are brought up manually, they would still take the same amount of 
memory. Also, I am not sure what would be the point to have a VM with just HDFS 
running (except if you are bringing up a cluster, in which case you would still 
have the same daemons somewhere else (using the same amount of memory) and 
would need different set of VMs).

As for the reference to Cloudera VM: this is exactly what I am referring to. It 
is literally painful to watch how nothing can get started in this thing. It 
crawls on all four.

Could you define "_nothing can get started_". Last I checked, all the daemons 
were starting and running fine and the ui was reacting fine.
