-------------------------------------

[~andrewor14] Hi, I have a basic question about your idea. I'm using 
fine-grained mesos for running my jobs. that mode already allocate resources 
dynamically when task scheduler wants. What you think the difference is between 
your idea and fine-grained mode? Unlike coarse-grained mode, fine-grained mode 
adjusts # of cores for a executor and enables to make two more executor on each 
slave. I think if we set # of cores for each mesos executor in a configuration 
on fine-grained mode - now, only one core fixed for each executor -, we can 
satisfy dynamic allocation idea. and I read SPARK-4751, and I'll handle this 
issue via using fine-grain mode. And how do you think you adjust resources? new 
API for increasing or decreasing cores or just use {{spark.cores.max}}?

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4922
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Mesos
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
>            Reporter: Andrew Or
>            Priority: Critical

> This brings SPARK-3174, which provided dynamic allocation of cluster 
> resources to Spark on YARN applications, to Mesos coarse-grained mode. 
> Note that the translation is not as trivial as adding a code path that 
> exposes the request and kill mechanisms as we did for YARN is SPARK-3822. 
> This is because Mesos coarse-grained mode schedules on the notion of setting 
> the number of cores allowed for an application (as in standalone mode) 
> instead of number of executors (as in YARN mode). For more detail, please see 
> SPARK-4751.
> If you intend to work on this, please provide a detailed design doc!
