Re: Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-26 Thread Chawla,Sumit
What is the expected effect of reducing the mesosExecutor.cores to zero?
What functionality of executor is impacted? Is the impact is just that it
just behaves like a regular process?

Re: Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-26 Thread Michael Gummelt
In fine-grained mode (which is deprecated), Spark tasks (which are threads)
were implemented as Mesos tasks.  When a Mesos task starts and stops, its
underlying cgroup, and therefore the resources its consuming on the
cluster, grows or shrinks based on the resources allocated to the tasks,
which in Spark is just CPU.  This is what I mean by CPU usage "elastically
growing".

However, all Mesos tasks are run by an "executor", which has its own
resource allocation.  In Spark, the executor is the JVM, and all memory is
allocated to the executor, because JVMs can't relinquish memory.  If memory
were allocated to the tasks, then the cgroup's memory allocation would
shrink when the task terminated, but the JVM's memory consumption would
stay constant, and the JVM would OOM.

And, without dynamic allocation, executors never terminate during the
duration of a Spark job, because even if they're idle (no tasks), they
still may be hosting shuffle files.  That's why dynamic allocation depends
on an external shuffle service.  Since executors never terminate, and all
memory is allocated to the executors, Spark jobs even in fine-grained mode
only grow in memory allocation, they don't shrink.

Re: Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-26 Thread Jacek Laskowski
Hi Michael,

That caught my attention...

Could you please elaborate on "elastically grow and shrink CPU usage"
and how it really works under the covers? It seems that CPU usage is
just a "label" for an executor on Mesos. Where's this in the code?

Maybe for CPU, but definitely not for memory.  Executors never shut down in
fine-grained mode, which means you only elastically grow and shrink CPU
usage, not memory.

Re: Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-24 Thread Davies Liu
Using 0 for spark.mesos.mesosExecutor.cores is better than dynamic
allocation, but have to pay a little more overhead for launching a
task, which should be OK if the task is not trivial.

Since the direct result (up to 1M by default) will also go through
mesos, it's better to tune it lower, otherwise mesos could become the
bottleneck.

Re: Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-19 Thread Timothy Chen
Dynamic allocation works with Coarse grain mode only, we wasn't aware
a need for Fine grain mode after we enabled dynamic allocation support
on the coarse grain mode.

What's the reason you're running fine grain mode instead of coarse
grain + dynamic allocation?

No. Each executor runs 0 or more tasks. 

Each executor consumes 1 CPU, and each task running on that executor consumes 
another CPU. You can customize this via spark.mesos.mesosExecutor.cores ( 
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v1.6.3/docs/running-on-mesos.md ) and 
spark.task.cpus (

I suppose your task to executor CPU ratio is low enough that it looks like most

significantly more CPU the amortized cost of the idle executors would not be

 I suppose your task to executor CPU ratio is low enough that it looks
 like most of the resources are not being reclaimed. If your tasks were
 using significantly more CPU the amortized cost of the idle executors would
 not be such a big deal.

Great.  Makes much better sense now.  What will be reason to have

Re: Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-19 Thread Chawla,Sumit
Ah thanks. looks like i skipped reading this *"Neither will executors
terminate when they’re idle."*

So in my job scenario,  I should preassume that No of executors should be
less than number of tasks. Ideally one executor should execute 1 or more
tasks.  But i am observing something strange instead.  I start my job with
48 partitions for a spark job. In mesos ui i see that number of tasks is
48, but no. of CPUs is 78 which is way more than 48.  Here i am assuming
that 1 CPU is 1 executor.   I am not specifying any configuration to set
number of cores per executor.

Hi Chawla,

One possible reason is that Mesos fine grain mode also takes up cores
to run the executor per host, so if you have 20 agents running Fine
grained executor it will take up 20 cores while it's still running.

Yea, the idea is to use dynamic allocation.  I can't speak to how well it
works with Mesos, though.

I think that what you are looking for is Dynamic resource allocation: 
http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/job-scheduling.html#dynamic-resource-allocation
 


Spark provides a mechanism to dynamically adjust the resources your application 
occupies based on the workload. This means that your application may give 
resources back to the cluster if they are no longer used and request them again 
later when there is demand. This feature is particularly useful if multiple 
applications share resources in your Spark cluster.

But coarse grained does the exact same thing which i am trying to avert here. 
At the cost of lower startup, it keeps the resources reserved till the entire 
duration of the job.

I don't have a lot of experience with the fine-grained scheduler.  It's
deprecated and fairly old now.  CPUs should be relinquished as tasks

Mesos Spark Fine Grained Execution - CPU count

2016-12-16 Thread Chawla,Sumit
Hi

I am using Spark 1.6. I have one query about Fine Grained model in Spark.
I have a simple Spark application which transforms A -> B.  Its a single
stage application.  To begin the program, It starts with 48 partitions.
When the program starts running, in mesos UI it shows 48 tasks and 48 CPUs
allocated to job.  Now as the tasks get done, the number of active tasks
number starts decreasing.  How ever, the number of CPUs does not decrease
propotionally.  When the job was about to finish, there was a single
remaininig task, however CPU count was still 20.

My questions, is why there is no one to one mapping between tasks and cpus
in Fine grained?  How can these CPUs be released when the job is done, so
that other jobs can start.
