             Summary: Allow tuning the number of dynamically allocated 
executors wrt task number
                 Key: SPARK-22683
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22683
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0, 2.1.0
            Reporter: Julien Cuquemelle
            Priority: Minor


let's say an executor has spark.executor.cores / spark.task.cpus taskSlots

The current dynamic allocation policy allocates enough executors
to have each taskSlot execute a single task, which minimizes latency, 
but wastes resources when tasks are small regarding executor allocation
overhead. 

By adding the tasksPerExecutorSlot, it is made possible to specify how many 
tasks
a single slot should ideally execute to mitigate the overhead of executor
allocation.
