Github user sryza commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/4818#issuecomment-76514683 My opinion is that we should make the default true, as the vanilla YARN default of `FIFOScheduler` will run into this issue (though most vendor distributions have a better default). There are no versions of YARN that will return containers smaller than were requested, except in this weird situation where the scheduler doesn't support CPU scheduling. I actually think it might be better to avoid a config at all and always just avoid matching on CPU. It's really hard to imagine any situation where it would actually benefit someone to set the config to false. The only one I can think of is debugging incorrect behavior in YARN, and, if we care about that, it would be better to just log something.
