Resource Fragmentation
A classic problem in cluster scheduling in which mismatched resource allocation granularity leaves idle resources stranded on nodes. These residual resources cannot be assembled into an allocation unit that satisfies the complete requirements of a new task, creating hidden costs.
Timeline (last 90 days)
In large-scale GPU clusters, resource fragmentation manifests as some GPUs idling while waiting for paired CPU resources, and others that cannot be fully utilized due to mismatched task granularity.
Resource fragmentation in cluster scheduling is essentially the manifestation of the multidimensional bin packing problem on heterogeneous resources.
