Sorry, just noticed that SchedulerDriver.launchTasks() takes a List of
Tasks, so I guess you can launch multiple job/Task requests against the
same OfferID if you make them all in the same launchTasks() call.

Is this an all or nothing batch call if one of them say requests more than
what is available on the slave?

Also is it kosher to make multiple launchTasks() calls for the same OfferID
or do they have to batched in one launchTasks() call? Just want to make
sure I follow recommended API usage and not get my self in deep water or
any unexpected behavior for how resources are allocated.

Thanks,
