Wangda Tan commented on YARN-2113:
----------------------------------

[~jlowe],

I agree with some of your point, for example, app priority can implicitly 
create priority arm race. We should properly handle it, for example, only allow 
the queue admin to be a moderator to update app priority. 

However, some of your point only valid when there's only one app for each user. 
In the following example:

{code}
3 apps in the queue, from 2 users.

A1 A2 A3
U1 U2 U1

A1/A3/A4 have lower priority and admin update A2's priority in between.
Assume user limit is 100 for this queue. Usages of these apps are:
A1 = 50, no pending resource.
A2 = 30, pending 50.
A3 = 20
{code}

Questions:
1) Should we allow A2 preempt A3? 
2) Should we allow A2 preempt A1?

>From your previous comment, I think your answer to question #2 is no, however, 
>if we don't allow #1, does that mean one user can "bully" other users by just 
>keeping the first submitted app running to get more user limit?

> Preemption today only works across queues and moves around resources across 
> queues per demand and usage. We should also have user-level preemption within 
> a queue, to balance capacity across users in a predictable manner.
