    I guess it depends on what "--executor-memory" means on Mesos. On Yarn, it 
means the "-Xmx" value for the JVM. So it doesn't include the memory used by 
any python processes included in the process group. So `--executor-memory + 
overheadMemory` should be able to cover the JVM heap + JVM overhead + RSS of 
all the python processes. At that point, a fraction doesn't make sense, 
because, as I mentioned above, the memory of the python processes is unrelated 
to the JVM heap size.
