> Currently users have to set 2 memory-related configs per Job / per task type. 
>  One first chooses some container size map reduce.\*.memory.mb and then a 
> corresponding maximum Java heap size Xmx < map reduce.\*.memory.mb. This 
> makes sure that the JVM's C-heap (native memory + Java heap) does not exceed 
> this mapreduce.*.memory.mb. If one forgets to tune Xmx, MR-AM might be 
> - allocating big containers whereas the JVM will only use the default 
> -Xmx200m.
> - allocating small containers that will OOM because Xmx is too high.
> With this JIRA, we propose to set Xmx automatically based on an empirical 
> ratio that can be adjusted. Xmx is not changed automatically if provided by 
> the user.
