- This value is an additive for <code>spark.executor.memory</code>, specified in MB,
- which is used to calculate the total Mesos task memory. A value of <code>384</code>
- implies a 384MB overhead. Additionally, there is a hard-coded 10% minimum

+ The amount of additional memory, specified in MB, to be allocated per executor. By default,
+ the overhead will be larger of either 384 or 10% of `spark.executor.memory`. If it's set,
+ the final overhead will be this value.
