Sandy Ryza commented on SPARK-4352:
-----------------------------------

In your example, what would be the advantage of requesting 15 executors on <a, 
b, d> if we could only make use of 5?

> Incorporate locality preferences in dynamic allocation requests

>    Affects Versions: 1.2.0

> Currently, achieving data locality in Spark is difficult unless an 
> application takes resources on every node in the cluster.  
> preferredNodeLocalityData provides a sort of hacky workaround that has been 
> broken since 1.0.
> With dynamic executor allocation, Spark requests executors in response to 
> demand from the application.  When this occurs, it would be useful to look at 
> the pending tasks and communicate their location preferences to the cluster 
> resource manager.
