Steve Loughran commented on YARN-1011:
--------------------------------------

Feature creep: could we have a way to explicitly ask for speculative 
containers? This could be useful in long-lived services; the equivalent of EC2 
spot instances, where you can have a few for work if you understand that they 
may be destroyed with no warning at all.
                
> [Umbrella] RM should dynamically schedule containers based on utilization of 
> currently allocated containers

> Currently RM allocates containers and assumes resources allocated are

> RM can, and should, get to a point where it measures utilization of allocated 
> containers and, if appropriate, allocate more (speculative?) containers.
