Tanuj Nayak commented on YARN-5695:
-----------------------------------

Hello I would like to throw out an idea for implementing the ratio function 
here given vectors of resources for this JIRA. 

Suppose the two parameter resource vectors are a and b, we have that ratio(a, 
b) = <a, b>/||b||^2 where <a,b> is the euclidean dot product of a and b. This 
preserves the sum to one property that is described in this JIRA and comes 
pretty close to a comparison function as it basically simplifies to the 
normalized projection of a onto b in the euclidean vector space. One could 
argue that when a and b are orthogonal, the ratio function will awkwardly 
return 0. However, as both vectors are guaranteed to be in the first octant 
(all coordinates are positive) this will happen very rarely. 

Any thoughts regarding this?

> DominantResourceCalculator does not respect R1/(R1+R2) + R2/(R1+R2) = 1 (as 
> it peaks max of each element to produce ratios). This property is problematic 
> for YARN-5325.
