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

>             Project: Spark

> 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.
