Jason Lowe commented on YARN-314:
---------------------------------

bq. Do we have applications that need this capability?

Tez can sometimes end up asking for multiple sizes at the same priority, and 
that sometimes ends up causing jobs to hang.  See TEZ-3296.

> Schedulers should allow resource requests of different sizes at the same 
> priority and location

> Currently, resource requests for the same container and locality are expected 
> to all be the same size.
> While it it doesn't look like it's needed for apps currently, and can be 
> circumvented by specifying different priorities if absolutely necessary, it 
> seems to me that the ability to request containers with different resource 
> requirements at the same priority level should be there for the future and 
> for completeness sake.
