Imran Rashid commented on SPARK-14822: -------------------------------------- [~mgummelt] is this still relevant? seems like dynamic allocation on mesos already covers this (not precisely the same but pretty close) > Add lazy executor startup to Mesos Scheduler > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-14822 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14822 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Task > Components: Mesos > Reporter: Michael Gummelt > > As we deprecate fine-grained mode, we need to make sure we have alternative > solutions for its benefits. > Its two benefits are: > 0. lazy executor startup > In fine-grained mode, executors are brought up only as tasks are scheduled. > This means that a user doesn't have to set {{spark.cores.max}} to ensure > that the app doesn't consume all resources in the cluster. > 1. relinquishing cores > As Spark tasks terminate, the mesos task it was bound to terminates as > well, thus relinquishing the cores assigned to it. > I'd like to add {{0.}} to coarse-grained mode, possibly enabled with a > configuration param. If https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1279 > ever happens, we can add {{1.}} as well. > cc [~tnachen] [~dragos] [~skonto] [~andrewor14] -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
