Thanks for the good FAQ. I have to strenuously disagree though with calling all the scheduler complaints a red herring.
It's legitimate complaint and mindbogglingly simple to fix by giving users a control called Max-Instances instead of Max-Idle-Instances. Right now we have to play all these stupid tuning games to keep the scheduler from fanning things out in unsustainable ways. If we could just set a hard limit we could make sure it never fanned out past a certain level of instance parallelism. It's such a freaking easy thing to fix but Google doesn't want to do that for whatever internal reason.
