    hey @andrewor14.  Yes these changes fix the issue. Its really easy to 
reproduce if you want to test it out yourself just check the instructions in 
the jira.  dynamic allocation is pretty broken right now with speculation on.  
At least if you want it to give executors back.  Here I changed what was 
necessary (kind of the minimum) to make it work, all the tests I ran passed.  I 
ran many times because its all timing dependent on the order in which the 
events come in and whether speculative tasks finish before original, etc..  
Honestly the speculation code needs some cleanup and rework.  I am going to 
file another jira for that though.
    
    In my opinion, you can try to make things happen in the right order as much 
as possible, but this is a distributed system and you have to be able to handle 
things coming out of order.
