Hudson commented on MAHOUT-414:
-------------------------------
Integrated in Mahout-Quality #325 (See
[https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/job/Mahout-Quality/325/])
> Usability: Mahout applications need a consistent API to allow users to
> specify desired map/reduce concurrency
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MAHOUT-414
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-414
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.3
> Reporter: Jeff Eastman
> Fix For: 0.4
>
>
> If specifying the number of mappers and reducers is a common activity which
> users need to perform in running Mahout applications on Hadoop clusters then
> we need to have a standard way of specifying them in our APIs without
> exposing the full set of Hadoop options, especially for our non-power-users.
> This is the case for some applications already but others require the use of
> Hadoop-level -D arguments to achieve reasonable out-of-the-box parallelism
> even when running our examples. The usability defect is that some of our
> algorithms won't scale without it and that we don't have a standard way to
> express this in our APIs.
