Have you tried using something like supervisord? Or the slew of other process 
launchers available for *nix. 
Check brew.
I would look to that as an interim solution if the plist method remains 
problematic.

Hi,
        There have been prior discussions on the list about the OS X Latency 
issue. I had filed a bug here:
        https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5589
        We have found that the root cause is starting the mesos application in 
the background using a plist entry.  If you launch the mesos agent from a 
terminal it works fine.  We have tried to get a plist (not an app) to work and 
none of the documented settings in launchd remove the latency issue.
        
https://developer.apple.com/legacy/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man5/launchd.plist.5.html
        The settings we tried are:
         ProcessType <string>     This optional key describes, at a high level, 
the intended purpose of the job.  The system will apply
     resource limits based on what kind of job it is. If left unspecified, the 
system will apply light
     resource limits to the job, throttling its CPU usage and I/O bandwidth. 
The following are valid values:

           Background
           Background jobs are generally processes that do work that was not 
directly requested by the user.
           The resource limits applied to Background jobs are intended to 
prevent them from disrupting the
           user experience.

           Standard
           Standard jobs are equivalent to no ProcessType being set.

           Adaptive
           Adaptive jobs move between the Background and Interactive 
classifications based on activity over
           XPC connections. See xpc_transaction_begin(3) for details.

           Interactive
           Interactive jobs run with the same resource limitations as apps, 
that is to say, none. Interac-tive Interactive
           tive jobs are critical to maintaining a responsive user experience, 
and this key should only be
           used if an app's ability to be responsive depends on it, and cannot 
be made Adaptive.


The mesos agent works correctly if you start it as a GUI app. This leaves an 
icon on the screen. One can live with it but it is an indication of the lack of 
proper documentation from apple and or utter lack of understanding of 
background application on the Desktop OS known as OS X.  If someone has a plist 
solution please share it. It is not reasonable to start mesos agents from a 
terminal session or cron, the operating system should manage startup and 
shutdown.
