Thomas Graves updated SPARK-12384:
----------------------------------
    Assignee: Dhruve Ashar

> Allow -Xms to be set differently then -Xmx
> ------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-12384
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12384
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Spark Submit, YARN
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
>            Reporter: Thomas Graves
>            Assignee: Dhruve Ashar
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently Spark automatically sets the -Xms parameter to be the same as the 
> -Xmx parameter. We should allow the user to set this separately.
> The main use case here is if I'm running the spark-shell on a shared gateway. 
> Many users specify a larger memory size then needed and will never use that 
> much memory, so all its doing is preventing other users from potentially 
> using that memory.  Allowing it to be less is just more multi-tenant friendly.
> I think it makes sense to leave this for cluster mode, although if a user 
> really wants to override I don't see why we shouldn't let them.
