> This is the code that sizes the RPC dispatcher thread pool:
> {noformat}
>   private val threadpool: ThreadPoolExecutor = {
>     val numThreads = 
> nettyEnv.conf.getInt("spark.rpc.netty.dispatcher.numThreads",
>       math.max(2, Runtime.getRuntime.availableProcessors()))
>     val pool = ThreadUtils.newDaemonFixedThreadPool(numThreads, 
> "dispatcher-event-loop")
> {noformat}
> That is based on the number of available cores on the host, instead of the 
> number of cores the executor was told to use. Meaning if you start an 
> executor with a single "core" on a host with 64 CPUs, you'll get 64 threads, 
> which is kinda overkill.
> Using the allocated cores + a lower bound is probably a better approach.
