Github user lirui-intel commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/892#issuecomment-45397807 @mridulm maybe it's better to allow users to specify how many executors they need (which is not available with standalone mode I believe)? So they can control things like total CPU and memory the application will get, and launch jobs once a sufficient fraction is granted.
