> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Spark Core
> Reporter: Zongheng Yang
>
> Suppose an application consists of multiple stages, where some stages contain
> computation-intensive tasks, and other stages contain less
> computation-intensive (or otherwise ordinary) tasks.
> For such job to run efficiently, it might make sense to provide user a
> function to set "spark.task.cpus" to a high number right before the
> computation-intensive stages/tasks are getting generated in the user code,
> and set the property to a lower number for other stages/tasks.
> As a first step, supporting this feature across stages instead of the more
> fine-grained task-level might suffice.
