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

Great. I left you some comments on the docs. I'll try to give it a spin. 
Probably on Friday.

> Support launching multiple mesos executors in coarse grained mesos mode
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: SPARK-5095
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5095
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Mesos
>            Reporter: Timothy Chen
>
> Currently in coarse grained mesos mode, it's expected that we only launch one 
> Mesos executor that launches one JVM process to launch multiple spark 
> executors.
> However, this become a problem when the JVM process launched is larger than 
> an ideal size (30gb is recommended value from databricks), which causes GC 
> problems reported on the mailing list.
> We should support launching mulitple executors when large enough resources 
> are available for spark to use, and these resources are still under the 
> configured limit.
> This is also applicable when users want to specifiy number of executors to be 
> launched on each node
