----------------------------------------

I like Jason's idea. 

> Release all containers aynchronously

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-7086
>             Project: Hadoop YARN
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: resourcemanager
>            Reporter: Arun Suresh

> We have noticed in production two situations that can cause deadlocks and 
> cause scheduling of new containers to come to a halt, especially with regard 
> to applications that have a lot of live containers:
> # When these applicaitons release these containers in bulk.
> # When these applications terminate abruptly due to some failure, the 
> scheduler releases all its live containers in a loop.
> To handle the issues mentioned above, we have a patch in production to make 
> sure ALL container releases happen asynchronously - and it has served us well.
> Opening this JIRA to gather feedback on if this is a good idea generally (cc 
> [~leftnoteasy], [~jlowe], [~curino], [~kasha], [~subru], [~roniburd])
> BTW, In YARN-6251, we already have an asyncReleaseContainer() in the 
> AbstractYarnScheduler and a corresponding scheduler event, which is currently 
> used specifically for the container-update code paths (where the scheduler 
> realeases temp containers which it creates for the update)
