Tim Armstrong commented on IMPALA-10193:
----------------------------------------

[~fifteencai] I think your approach of allowing it to be controlled via an 
environment variable makes sense. I'd encourage you to upload a code review to 
gerrit to get feedback on the specifics of the change once you have confirmed 
the code works and we can suggest any other changes or improvements there.

> Limit the memory usage of the whole mini-cluster

> The mini-cluster contains 3 virtual nodes, and all of them runs in a single 
> 'Machine'. By quoting, it implies the machine can be a docker container. If 
> the container is started with `-priviledged` and the actual memory is limited 
> by CGROUPS, then the total memory in `htop` and the actual available memory 
> can be different! 
>  
> For example, in the container below, `htop` tells us the total memory is 
> 128GB, while the total memory set in CGROUPS is actually 32GB. If the acutal 
> mem usage exceeds 32GB, process (such as impalad, hivemaster2 etc.) get 
> killed.

> So we may need a way to limit the whole mini-cluster's memory usage.
