Anubhav Dhoot updated YARN-2225:
--------------------------------

    Description: The virtual memory check may not be the best way to isolate 
applications. Virtual memory is not the constrained resource. It would be 
better if we limit the swapping of the task using swapiness instead. This patch 
will turn this DEFAULT_NM_VMEM_CHECK_ENABLED off by default and let users turn 
it on if they need to.  (was: The virtual memory check may not be the best way
