---------------------------------------
Summary: DRF allocator should take into account past allocations
when determining an ordering so frameworks are not starved.
Key: MESOS-1086
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1086
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Bug
Components: master
Reporter: Benjamin Hindman
Priority: Critical
The DRF allocator (master/drf_sorter.hpp|cpp) currently only uses a framework's
share to determine an ordering for allocating resources. When there are very
few resources to go around it's possible that a framework will get allocated
resources (making it have a dominant share larger than others), use those
resources, then return those resources (making it's dominant share equal to the
share of others), and then get reallocated the resources _again_ because its
dominant share is equal to others. This can cause starvation for frameworks.
