---------------------------------------
Is this still a issue or can we close it? :)
> Agents may OOM during recovery if there are too many tasks or executors
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MESOS-6285
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6285
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.0.1
> Reporter: Joseph Wu
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: foundations, mesosphere
>
> On an test cluster, we encountered a degenerate case where running the
> example {{long-lived-framework}} for over a week would render the agent
> un-recoverable.
> The {{long-lived-framework}} creates one custom {{long-lived-executor}} and
> launches a single task on that executor every time it receives an offer from
> that agent. Over a week's worth of time, the framework manages to launch
> some 400k tasks (short sleeps) on one executor. During runtime, this is not
> problematic, as each completed task is quickly rotated out of the agent's
> memory (and checkpointed to disk).
> During recovery, however, the agent reads every single task into memory,
> which leads to slow recovery; and often results in the agent being OOM-killed
> before it finishes recovering.
> To repro this condition quickly:
> 1) Apply this patch to the {{long-lived-framework}}:
> {code}

> launches.
> 3) Restart the agent and watch it flail during recovery.
