-------------------------------

             Summary: Add a spark config to allow user to use executor cores 
virtually.
                 Key: SPARK-29791
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-29791
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Scheduler
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: zengrui


We can config the executor cores by "spark.executor.cores". For example, if we 
config 8 cores for a executor, then the driver can only scheduler 8 tasks to 
this executor concurrently. In fact, most cases a task does not always occupy a 
core or more. More time, tasks spent on disk IO or network IO, so we can make 
driver to scheduler more than 8 tasks to this executor concurrently, it will 
make the whole job execute more quickly.
