Dmitriy Lyubimov commented on MAHOUT-814:
-----------------------------------------
Actually, from what i am reading, even java.io.tmpdir may be shared between
different tasks even in distributed mode in case jvm sharing is enabled (forget
the property name, but i use it also at value of ~5-10 to speed up small tasks
setup).
In which case using java.io.tmp/q-temp may potentially be a problem as well.
+What i propose is it probably would be safer to use a directory
*$java.io.tmp/$taskAttemptID* which would guarantee task uniqueness (but
perhaps not with local tests, if it is not unique with local tests, i will add
some random numbers).+

A little background: having to write a temporary file in this task is a corner
case only arising when Q block height is smaller than the number of input rows
of A coming in, which should never be the case with normal block sizes but may
be a case with minSplitSize splits set at 1G or something, or if A input is
extremely sparse (such as one non-zero element per row on average, then yeah, Q
blocks, which are k+p wide (the number of eigenvalues requested), which is not
a very good use case for this method, i'd rather try to transpose first to see
if it helps row-wise sparsity).
The test however is set up intentionally the way that Q block height is set
extremely small to test both blocking within a split and among the splits.
