Seth Hendrickson commented on SPARK-10078: ------------------------------------------ [~yanboliang] I was a bit confused by the following comment under new requirements for VL-BFGS: "API consistency with Breeze L-BFGS so we can migrate existing code smoothly." What existing code are we migrating, and to where/what? Are we planning to replace the use of the Breeze LBFGS solvers with this VL-BFGS implementation? If so, what about the numerous use cases that do not need to partition by features?
