Guangya Liu commented on MESOS-4392:
------------------------------------

I think that the logic of handing {{Quota Slack}} should be very similiar with 
{{allocation slack}} which we are doing now for MESOS-1607. All of the 
revocable resources generated by {{Quota Slack}} should be handled in allocator 
and ideally the master should be able to generate the exectutor list which 
needs to be evicited if there are any resources that the Quota need to reclaim 
it back.

[~alexr], [~bernd-mesos], can you please also help review the patch chain 
starting from https://reviews.apache.org/r/40375/, it may give you some help or 
some ideas for how to handle {{Quota Slack}}.

> Balance quota frameworks with non-quota, greedy frameworks.

> Maximize resource utilization and minimize starvation risk for both quota 
> frameworks and non-quota, greedy frameworks when competing with each other.
> A greedy analytics batch system wants to use as much of the cluster as 
> possible to maximize computational throughput. When a competing web service 
> with fixed task size starts up, there must be sufficient resources to run it 
> immediately. The operator can reserve these resources by setting quota. 
> However, if these resources are kept idle until the service is in use, this 
> is wasteful from the analytics job's point of view. On the other hand, the 
> analytics job should hand back reserved resources to the service when needed 
> to avoid starvation of the latter.
> We can assume that often, the resources needed by the service will be of the 
> non-revocable variety. Here we need to introduce clearer distinctions between 
> oversubscribed and revocable resources that are not oversubscribed. An 
> oversubscribed resource cannot be converted into a non-revocable resource, 
> not even by preemption. In contrast, a non-oversubscribed, revocable resource 
> can be converted into a non-revocable resource.
> Another related topic is optimistic offers. The pertinent aspect in this 
> context is again whether resources are oversubscribed or not.
