Jeff Bean updated MAPREDUCE-2905:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
We encountered a situation where in the same cluster, large jobs benefit from 
mapred.fairscheduler.assignmultiple, but small jobs with small numbers of 
mappers do not: the mappers all clump to fully occupy just a few nodes, which 
causes those nodes to saturate and bottleneck. The desired behavior is to 
spread the job across more nodes so that a relatively small job doesn't 
saturate any node in the cluster.

It'd be nice developers can set a param similar to 
mapred.fairscheduler.assignmultiple on a per-job basis to better control the 
task allocation of a particular job.
