Xiangrui Meng commented on SPARK-3541:
--------------------------------------
I put the implementation at
https://github.com/mengxr/spark-als/blob/master/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/ml/SimpleALS.scala
. It still needs some cleanups to become a PR, but early feedbacks are welcome.
> Improve ALS internal storage
> ----------------------------

> Key: SPARK-3541
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3541
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ML, MLlib
> Reporter: Xiangrui Meng
> Assignee: Xiangrui Meng
> Original Estimate: 96h
> Remaining Estimate: 96h

> The internal storage of ALS uses many small objects, which increases the GC
> pressure and makes ALS difficult to scale to very large scale, e.g., 50
> billion ratings. In such cases, the full GC may take more than 10 minutes to
> finish. That is longer than the default heartbeat timeout and hence executors
> will be removed under default settings.
> We can use primitive arrays to reduce the number of objects significantly.
> This requires big change to the ALS implementation.
