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? Thanks!
