> In currently implementation of YarnFlinkResourceManager, it starts to acquire 
> new container one by one when get request from SlotManager. The mechanism 
> works when job is still, say less than 32 containers. If the job has 256 
> container, containers can't be immediately allocated and appending requests 
> in AMRMClient will be not removed accordingly. We observe the situation that 
> AMRMClient ask for current pending request + 1 (the new request from slot 
> manager) containers. In this way, during the start time of such job, it asked 
> for 4000+ containers. If there is an external dependency issue happens, for 
> example hdfs access is slow. Then, the whole job will be blocked without 
> getting enough resource and finally killed with SlotManager request timeout.
> Thus, we should use the total number of container asked rather than pending 
> request in AMRMClient as threshold to make decision whether we need to add 
> one more resource request.
