1) Uses String instead of URI for resource key? I think it maybe more efficient to use String, it will be easier to construct when using it, uses less resource (hasn't tested, but I think it will be true according to #fields in String and URI). I can understand the motivation of solving conflicts of resource namespace, but I think namespace conflict is not the major use case AND String can define namespace as well.

Fixed.

2) Relationship between ResourceInformation and ResourceMapEntry: currently it's 1-1 mapping, a ResourceInformation has value/unit from ResourceMapEntry, they're kind of overlapping and also confusing. I think it's better to make ResourceInformation to be one for each resource type. ResourceMapEntry contains runtime information, and ResourceInformation contains configured information. This will also avoid create ResourceInformation instance when invoking Resource.getResourceInformation()

3) Resource unit: I like the design which can easily convert a internal value to human-readable value. But I think maybe we don't need to support define unit in ResourceMapEntry. There're some cons of it:

    When we doing comparision of resources, we have to convert units, it's an extra overhead.
    It doesn't make a lot of sense to me that keep internal unit of resources: We should handle it when constructing Resource (something like Resource.newInstance("memory", 12, "GB")). And we will use the standard unit to do internal computations.
    We can define the standard unit in each "ResourceInformation" if you agree with #2.

I spoke with Wangda offline an we agree that it makes more sense to do performance testing once we have the DRC changes in. Since this patch is going in to a branch, there's no issue committing and running a full suite of performance tests once we have the DRC changes in.

4) Do you think it's better to have a global ResourceInformation map instead of storing it in each Resource instance?
{quote}

For now, I'd like to keep it per-resource instance but if it becomes an overhead, we can make it a global instance.

5) Resource#compareTo/hashCode has debug logging.
{quote}

Fixed.

6) It seems not necessary to instance ArrayList in Resource#compareTo. Just traverse the set can avoid create the temporary ArrayList.
{quote}
Good point. I decided to use the size of the set itself as the sort order and avoid the issue altogether.
