[jira] [Created] (SPARK-26884) Let task acquire memory accurately when using spilled memory

SongYadong created SPARK-26884:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Let task acquire memory accurately when using spilled memory
                 Key: SPARK-26884
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26884
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: SongYadong


When task can't get required execution memory, it will call *spill()* of consumers to release more memory. After spilling, it tries again to acquire memory needed which is *(required - got)*. That's not accurate as actually *released* memory by spilling may not equal to size it try to spill. 
So it may be better to acquire memory in more accurate size :
1. when *released* >= needed, acquire needed size. (*required - got*)
2. when *released* < needed, acquire released size.
