    I had one other idea here: for blacklisted executors / hosts, we *could* 
periodically run a speculative copy of a task there.  If the task succeeds, we 
can un-blacklist the executor, and if the task fails, we haven't lost anything, 
because the task is just a speculative copy, so there's another copy of the 
task running elsewhere.  That would allow us to more aggressively re-try the 
executor, without sacrificing performance of any running jobs.
