Benjamin Mahler updated MESOS-458:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
We currently have the following layout when there is no system cgroup present 
on a machine:

/cgroup: (system processes, including the mesos-slave) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos: (no processes) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos/executor1: X shares
...
/cgroup/mesos/executorN: X shares


This does not ensure the slave gets a fair share of the cpu, especially when 
there is load inside the root cgroup. This is because the slave is contending 
with other processes inside the root cgroup. If the administrators set up a 
system cgroup, the layout looks as follows:

/cgroup: (no processes)
/cgroup/system: (system processes, including the mesos-slave) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos: (no processes) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos/executor1: X shares
...
/cgroup/mesos/executorN: X shares


This still does not ensure the slave gets a fair share for the same reasons.
However, if we create a cgroup to hold only the slave:

/cgroup: (no processes)
/cgroup/system: (system processes) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos-slave: (mesos-slave process) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos: (no processes) 1024 shares
/cgroup/mesos/executor1: X shares
...
/cgroup/mesos/executorN: X shares

With the above configuration, the slave will get 1 cpu, system processes will 
get 1 cpu, and the executors will get the rest.

See the following link for sharing behavior in the root cgroup:
