-----------------------------------------
I have a PR for this issue in the works, I'd like to be the one to handle it.
> Need a way to convert from IndexedRowMatrix to Block
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-20109
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20109
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: MLlib
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: John Compitello
>
> The current implementation of toBlockMatrix on IndexedRowMatrix is
> insufficient. It is implemented by first converting the IndexedRowMatrix to a
> CoordinateMatrix, then converting that CoordinateMatrix to a BlockMatrix. Not
> only is this slower than it needs to be, it also means that the created
> BlockMatrix ends up being backed by instances of SparseMatrix, which a user
> may not want.
