Siddharth Seth commented on YARN-275:
-------------------------------------

bq. To be clear, I did not mean we should implement dynamic heartbeat 
intervals. Just change the protocol so that heartbeat comes from the RM to the 
NM. The dynamic part can be done later. I think the patch in this jira (after 
some minor polishing) limits itself to just the protocol changes as a first 
step. The RM sends a fixed value obtained via config.
Misunderstood your previous comment to include a dynamic back off. Having the 
RM dictate the heartbeat interval seems reasonably independent of changes in 
YARN-365. As an initial step, do you think this will be simpler via config - 
instead of having the scheduler indicate whether the NMs should back off (like 
is done in the current patch)?
