Jason Lowe commented on TEZ-3770:
---------------------------------

Thanks for kicking the tires on the patch, Eric!

The patch doesn't modify the code for the default scheduler, 
YarnTaskSchedulerService, so I can't readily explain things if this patch makes 
that scheduler unable to run that workload.  Is it able to run that workload 
without this patch?

I could see that behavior occurring if you also had pulled in the patch for 
TEZ-394, as it's a known problem causing massive preemptions for certain DAG 
topologies when combining TEZ-394 with YarnTaskSchedulerService.

> There are cases where priority alone does not convey the relationship between 
> tasks, and this can cause problems when scheduling or preempting tasks.  If 
> the YARN task scheduler was aware of the relationship between tasks then it 
> could make smarter decisions when trying to assign tasks to containers or 
> preempt running tasks to schedule pending tasks.
