Description

We currently build Mesos with protobuf 2.6.1 and bundle it as a dependency. We should upgrade it to use v3.2.0 instead. This would help us use arenas to improve performance (MESOS-6971) and also help resolve some bugs around the Mesos master not able to handle large protobufs (>64mbs in size, MESOS-4210) etc.
