-----------------------------------

             Summary: Dynamic allocation should allow 0 idle time
                 Key: SPARK-22870
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22870
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Scheduler
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Xuefu Zhang
            Priority: Minor


As discussed in SPARK-22765, with SPARK-21656, an executor will not idle out 
when there are pending tasks to run. When there is no task to run, an executor 
will die out after {{spark.dynamicAllocation.executorIdleTimeout}}, which is 
currently required to be greater than zero. However, for efficiency, a user 
should be able to specify that an executor can die out immediately w/o being 
required to be idle for at least 1s.

This is to make {{0}} a valid value for 
{{spark.dynamicAllocation.executorIdleTimeout}}, and special handling such a 
case might be needed.
