> I was recently doing some research into Spark on YARN's startup time and observed slow, synchronous allocation of containers/executors. I am testing on a 4 node bare metal cluster w/48 cores and 128GB memory per node. YARN was only allocating about 3 containers per second. Moreover when starting 3 Spark applications at the same time with each requesting 44 containers, the first application would get all 44 requested containers and then the next application would start getting containers and so on.
>
> From looking at the code, it appears this is by design. There is an undocumented configuration variable that will enable asynchronous allocation of containers. I'm sure I'm missing something, but why is this not the default? Is there a bug or race condition in this code path? I've done some testing with it and it's been working and is significantly faster.
>
> Here's the config:
> `yarn.scheduler.capacity.schedule-asynchronously.enable`
>
> Any help understanding this would be appreciated.

> h2. async scheduler research
> The goal of this test is to determine if running Spark on YARN with async scheduling of containers reduces the amount of time required for an application to receive all of its requested resources. This setting should also reduce the overall runtime of short-lived applications/stages or notebook paragraphs. This setting could prove crucial to achieving optimal performance when sharing resources on a cluster with dynalloc enabled.
> h3. Test Setup
> Must update /etc/hadoop/conf/capacity-scheduler.xml (or through Ambari) between runs.
> `yarn.scheduler.capacity.schedule-asynchronously.enable=true|false`
> conf files request executors counts of:
> * 2
> * 20
> * 50
> * 100
> The apps are being submitted to the default queue on each cluster which caps at 48 cores on dynalloc and 72 cores on baremetal. The default queue was expanded for the last two tests on baremetal so it could potentially take advantage of all 144 cores.
