Sebastian Schelter commented on MAHOUT-667:
-------------------------------------------
Hi Chris,
that patch looks very good, nearly ready to commit, thank you very much.
There's only a tiny issue, we tried to get rid of standard Java serialization
in MAHOUT-510 so I don't think we should use it here. I'd go for a binary
format here, what do you (and others) say?

> As discussed previously (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-640) it
> would be beneficial to provide a persistent storage mechanism for
> factorizations created by SVDRecommender (in package
> org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.impl.recommender.svd) as these can be time
> consuming to produce. It would also allow factorizations to be computed on
> one machine then distributed to other machines providing predictions,
> improving efficiency and scalability.
> Having a "persistence strategy" interface has been suggested that could be
> implemented as required. I'll try to post a outline proposal for discussion
> purposes in the next few days but any comments or suggestions would be very
> welcome.
