Karthik Kambatla commented on YARN-1011:
----------------------------------------

We might be better of calling this overallocation instead of oversubscription 
as the latter could be mistaken for oversubscription through the 
yarn.nodemanager.resource.* configs. I ll go ahead and use overallocation in 
patches like for YARN-4512, unless someone expresses reservations here or on 
YARN-4512.

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