We have several implementations of k-Means, which one do you refer to?

Hello,
I was studying Mahout libraries and I found something of strange in your
kMeans implementation.

I was looking inside it and I have noticed that kMeans only uses map
functions, omitting the reducers. Why have you done this choice?
It is not using MapReduce programming model even if it is declared that
the Mahout's core is Hadoop.
Is this choice driven by performance issue?
