Actually this is somehow confusing for two reasons:

- First, the option 'spark.executor.instances', which seems to be only dealt
with in the case of YARN in the source code of SparkSubmit.scala, is also
present in the conf/spark-env.sh file under the standalone section, which
would indicate that it is also available for this mode

- Second, a post from Andrew Or states that this properties define the
number of workers in the cluster, not the number of executors on a given
worker.

Could anyone clarify this? :-)

Thanks.
