Do the Hadoop 2.0 YARN scheduler(s) deal with situations like the following?
Hadoop cluster of 10 nodes, with 8GB each available for containers.  There is 
only one queue.
Application A requests 100 4GB containers.  It initially, or after a little 
while, gets 20 containers.
Later, application B requests 1 8GB container.
Suppose that App-A's containers each take a few minutes.  At some point one 
will complete.  When that happens, will the scheduler immediately allocate 
another 4GB container to App-A?  If so will App-B ever get its container until 
App-A is almost done?
Thanks
John
