             Summary: Update the balloon-framework to run on test clusters
                 Key: MESOS-5174
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5174
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: framework, technical debt
            Reporter: Joseph Wu
            Assignee: Joseph Wu


There are a couple of problems with the balloon framework that prevent it from 
being deployed (easily) on an actual cluster:

* The framework accepts 100% of memory in an offer.  This means the expected 
behavior (finish or OOM) is dependent on the offer size.
* The framework assumes the {{balloon-executor}} binary is available on each 
agent.  This is generally only true in the build environment or in single-agent 
test environments.
* The framework does not specify CPUs with the executor.  This is required by 
many isolators.
* The executor's {{TASK_FINISHED}} logic path was untested and is flaky.
* The framework has no metrics.
* The framework only launches a single task and then exits.  With this 
behavior, we can't have useful metrics.
