Description

Currently, the RM web UI sorts allocated memory and cores in lexicographic order which can be quite obtuse. When there are a large number of running jobs, it can be opaque to find the job which is allocating the most amount of memory or view jobs with similar allocation. Sorting these values numerically would improve usability.
