Sean Owen resolved MAHOUT-468.
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 0.4)
Resolution: Not A Problem
Since Sebastian is tracking #5 in MAHOUT-460, and I am not sure that the other
items are actual performance issues, I'm going to close this. If this can be
re-phrased to concern a specific performance issue that has been reasonably
confirmed, and ideally a patch, we could reopen (or just make a new JIRA).
> Performance of RowSimilarityJob is not good

> Key: MAHOUT-468
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-468
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Test
> Components: Collaborative Filtering
> Affects Versions: 0.4
> Reporter: Han Hui Wen
> Attachments:
> RowSimilarityJob-CooccurrencesMapper-SimilarityReducer.jpg
>
>
> I have done a test ,
> Preferences records: 680,194
> distinct users: 23,246
> distinct items:437,569
> SIMILARITY_CLASS_NAME=SIMILARITY_COOCCURRENCE
> maybePruneItemUserMatrixPath:16.50M
> weights:13.80M
> pairwiseSimilarity:18.81G
> Job RowSimilarityJob-RowWeightMapper-WeightedOccurrencesPerColumnReducer:used
> 32 sec
> Job RowSimilarityJob-CooccurrencesMapper-SimilarityReducer:used 4.30 hours
> I think the reason may be following:
> 1) We used SequenceFileOutputFormat,it cause job can only be run by n ( n=
> Hadoop node counts ) mappers or reducers concurrently.
> 2) We stored redundant info.
> for example :
> the output of CooccurrencesMapper:
> (ItemIndexA,similarity),(ItemIndexA,ItemIndexB,similarity)
> 3) Some frequently used code
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-467
> 4) allocate many local variable in loop (need confirm )
> In Class DistributedUncenteredZeroAssumingCosineVectorSimilarity
> @Override
> public double weight(Vector v) {
> double length = 0.0;
> Iterator<Element> elemIterator = v.iterateNonZero();
> while (elemIterator.hasNext()) {
> double value = elemIterator.next().get(); //this one
> length += value * value;
> }
> return Math.sqrt(length);
> }
> 5) Maybe we need control the size of cooccurrences
