             Summary: Improve the way Spark on Yarn waits for executors before 
starting
                 Key: SPARK-1453
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1453
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: YARN
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Thomas Graves
            Assignee: Thomas Graves


Currently Spark on Yarn just delays a few seconds between when the spark 
context is initialized and when it allows the job to start.  If you are on a 
busy hadoop cluster is might take longer to get the number of executors. 

In the very least we could make this timeout a configurable value.  Its 
currently hardcoded to 3 seconds.  
Better yet would be to allow user to give a minimum number of executors it 
wants to wait for, but that looks much more complex.
