Arun Suresh commented on YARN-2154:
-----------------------------------
Thanks for going thru the patch [~adhoot], [~kasha] and [~bpodgursky],
bq. ..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.
This will not happen, as the current patch has a check to only preempt from an
app, a container above its fair/min share.
Am still working on the unit tests..
> FairScheduler: Improve preemption to preempt only those containers that would
> satisfy the incoming request
