> Running on YARN, the only way to specify the number of executors seems to be 
> on the command line of spark-submit, via the --num-executors switch.
> In many cases this is too early. Our Spark app receives some cmdline 
> arguments which determine the amount of work that needs to be done - and that 
> affects the number of executors it ideally requires. Ideally, the Spark 
> context configuration would support specifying this like any other config 
> param.
> Our current workaround is a wrapper script that determines how much work is 
> needed, and which itself launches spark-submit with the number passed to 
> --num-executors - it's a shame to have to do this.
