-----------------------------

Hi Vinod,

Could you describe your fixes to help me understand what you did? And how
to check the fixes in the src files?

Thanks,
Du

> I was exploring the latest code (0.15.0) at https://github.com/apache/mesos 
> to test the tgz distribution of frameworks. Take spark for example. I created 
> a tgz of spark binary and put it on HDFS. After a job is submitted, it is 
> decomposed into many tasks. For each task, the assigned mesos slave downloads 
> the tgz from HDFS, unzips it, and executes some script to launch the task. 
> This seems very wasteful and unnecessary. 
> Does the following suggestion make sense? When a spark job is submitted, the 
> spark/mesos master calculates a checksum or something the like for the tgz 
> distribution. Then the checksum is sent to the slaves when tasks are 
> assigned. If the same file has already been downloaded/unzipped, a slave 
> directly launches the task. This way the tgz is processed at most once for 
> each job (which may have thousands of tasks). The aggregated saving would be 
> tremendous.
