Sandy Ryza commented on YARN-689:
---------------------------------
Consider this situation:
All the nodes in a cluster have 3 GB. Because YARN does not yet allow us to
set limits on disk IO, we don't want more than 3 containers on each node. We
do, however, think it is reasonable to run two 1.5 GB AMs on a node. How would
we specify this with only a multiplier?

> Currently we overloading the minimum resource value as the actual multiplier
> used by the scheduler.
> Today with a minimum memory set to 1GB, requests for 1.5GB are always
> translated to allocation of 2GB.
> We should decouple the minimum allocation from the multiplier.
> The multiplier should also be exposed to the client via the
> RegisterApplicationMasterResponse
