Matei Zaharia commented on MAPREDUCE-2210:
------------------------------------------

Which job scheduler are you using? The choice of tasks to preempt is entirely up to the scheduler, so you should mark the issue as belonging to the particular scheduler that you're using.

> Preemption, as it currently works, kills running tasks that are "unfair" in terms of the amount of task attention used by one job compared to another.
> The bug is that pre-emption occurs such that HIGH priority jobs have their tasks killed when the cluster is filled with lower-priority jobs. Pre-emption should only be allowed to kill tasks for jobs with equal or lower priority.
