Anubhav Dhoot commented on YARN-2154:
-------------------------------------
Apart from this, the patch changes the order of choosing which apps to preempt
from. Earlier it would prefer apps most over the limit and now there is no
order. The previous ordering is better since if you happen to choose something
just above its fairShare, after preemption it may go below and cause additional
preemption, causing excessive thrashing of resources.
> FairScheduler: Improve preemption to preempt only those containers that would
> satisfy the incoming request
