Benjamin Mahler commented on MESOS-312:
---------------------------------------

Looks like we only offer when there's more than 1 cpu and more than 32MB of 
memory available.

https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/trunk/src/master/hierarchical_allocator_process.hpp#L656
https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/trunk/src/master/constants.cpp#L29

Seems like both can be problematic, we should revisit this logic and these 
constants.

> If a framework already has an executor placed on a machine, it may be able to 
> use an offer that contains no or almost no memory but includes cpus. The 
> current allocator will never make such offers. 
> This can lead to non-intuitive results: If one runs Spark against Mesos 
> configuring Spark to use almost exactly the available-to-Mesos memory, Spark 
> will start running but eventually stall.
