Jie Yu commented on MESOS-1187:
-------------------------------
[~klaus1982], as [~idownes] suggested below, the true fix to this problem is to
use fixed point (instead of floating point). However, doing that will require
changes to the core protobuf definitions, which will make the rolling upgrade
very difficult.
As a short term fix, I would rather keep the code impact as small as possible.

> As allocations are stored/transmitted as doubles many a times precision
> errors creep in.
> we have seen erroneous share calculations happen only because of floating
> point arithmetic.
