Takeshi Yamamuro commented on HIVEMALL-20:
------------------------------------------

This description does not intend to codegen Hivemall functions themselves and 
Hivemall needs no change for the codegen supports. Re-implementing Hivemall 
functions as Spark native ones is good though, the cost of re-implementation 
and maintainability is high to me. If the overheads of Hive and Spark UDFs 
could be almost the same with each other, we didn't need to replace them.

> Most of Hivemall functions depend on Hive interfaces (UDF, GenericUDF, 
> GenericUDTF, ...), but Spark currently has overheads to call these interfaces 
> (https://github.com/myui/hivemall/blob/master/spark/spark-2.0/src/test/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/hive/benchmark/MiscBenchmark.scala).
>  Therefore, some functions such as sigmoid and each_top_k have been 
> re-implemented as native Spark functionality. This re-implementation seems to 
> worsen maintainability, so we'd better off improving the overheads in Spark. 
> This ticket is to track all related the activities.
