Joseph K. Bradley commented on SPARK-9918:
------------------------------------------

I like this idea.  "runs" seems like it should be in a wrapper analogous to 
CrossValidator (choosing best model from multiple runs).  And I agree we can 
probably get similar performance improvements by blocking the cluster centers 
and/or data points for higher-level BLAS ops.

> This requires some discussion. I'm not sure whether `runs` is a useful 
> parameter. It certainly complicates the implementation. We might want to 
> optimize the k-means implementation with block matrix operations. In this 
> case, having `runs` may not be worth the trade-offs.
