>           candidateQueue = queue;
>         }

>       toBePreempted = candidateQueue.preemptContainer();

> {code}
> a candidate child queue is selected. However, if the queue's usage isn't over it's fairshare, preemption will not happen:
> {code}
>     if (!preemptContainerPreCheck()) {
>       return toBePreempted;
>     }
> {code}
>  A scenario:
> {code}
>             root
>            /    \
>       queue1   queue2
>                /    \
>           queue2.3, (  queue2.4  )
> {code}
> suppose there're 8 containers, and queues at any level have the same weight. queue1 takes 4 and queue2.3 takes 4, so both queue1 and queue2 are at their fairshare. Now we submit an app in queue2.4 with 4 containers needs, it should preempt 2 from queue2.3, but the candidate-containers selection procedure will stop at queue1, so none of the containers will be preempted.
