> Observed livelock on FairScheduler when there are lots entry in queue. After
> my investigating code, following case can occur:
> 1. {{update()}} called by UpdateThread takes longer times than
> UPDATE_INTERVAL(500ms) if there are lots queue.
> 2. UpdateThread goes busy loop.
> 3. Other threads(AllocationFileReloader,
> ResourceManager$SchedulerEventDispatcher) can wait forever.
