Fan Xinpu commented on FLINK-10848:
-----------------------------------

Shuyi, is there a posibility that the ContainerRequest be removed just after it 
has been sent to RM? The workaround provided in PR removes the ContainerRequest 
when get the container from RM, but if container-completed happens between 
requesting containers and allocated containers, then a new request also 
contains unproper ContainerRequest.

> Flink's Yarn ResourceManager can allocate too many excess containers

> Currently, both the YarnFlinkResourceManager and YarnResourceManager do not 
> call removeContainerRequest() on container allocation success. Because the 
> YARN AM-RM protocol is not a delta protocol (please see YARN-1902), 
> AMRMClient will keep all ContainerRequests that are added and send them to RM.
> In production, we observe the following that verifies the theory: 16 
> containers are allocated and used upon cluster startup; when a TM is killed, 
> 17 containers are allocated, 1 container is used, and 16 excess containers 
> are returned; when another TM is killed, 18 containers are allocated, 1 
> container is used, and 17 excess containers are returned.
