> With Spark on yarn in client mode, the application master that gets created 
> to allocated containers gets the same amount of memory as the driver running 
> on the client. (--driver-memory option through spark-submit)  This could 
> definitely be more then what is really needed, thus wasting resources.  The 
> Application Master should be very small and require very little memory since 
> all its doing is allocating and starting containers.  
> We should allow the memory for the application master to be configurable 
> separate from the driver in client mode. 
>  We probably need to be careful about how we do this as to not cause 
> confusion about what the options do in the various modes.
