Dmitriy Lyubimov commented on MAHOUT-1193:
------------------------------------------
I think this is very useful.
I could use something like that for streaming QR solvers. Typically what
happens, there's a block of fixed height and width (usually dense or almost
dense) but it acts queue-like for rows (i.e. one can push one row from below
and remove one low from above).
The most efficient scheme that I used prevents object creation in that scenario
is that the memory that backs the pushed-out row can then be reused to push new
row from below. But I used just java 2d-array, i am sure there could be
something more clever and more general.
