+/**
+ * Allocates a pool of memory to task threads for use in shuffle
operations. Each disk-spilling
+ * collection (ExternalAppendOnlyMap or ExternalSorter) used by these
tasks can acquire memory
+ * from this pool and release it as it spills data out. When a task ends,
all its memory will be
+ * released by the Executor.
+ *
+ * This class tries to ensure that each thread gets a reasonable share of
memory, instead of some
+ * thread ramping up to a large amount first and then causing others to
spill to disk repeatedly.
+ * If there are N threads, it ensures that each thread can acquire at
least 1 / 2N of the memory
+ * before it has to spill, and at most 1 / N. Because N varies
dynamically, we keep track of the
+ * set of active threads and redo the calculations of 1 / 2N and 1 / N in
waiting threads whenever
+ * this set changes. This is all done by synchronizing access on "this" to
mutate state and using
+ * wait() and notifyAll() to signal changes.

Yeah, I'm still working on that.
