> Optimize the process of MLLIB ALS recommendForAll
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-20446
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20446
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ML, MLlib
> Affects Versions: 2.3.0
> Reporter: Peng Meng
>
> The recommendForAll of MLLIB ALS is very slow.
> GC is a key problem of the current method.
> The task use the following code to keep temp result:
> val output = new Array[(Int, (Int, Double))](m*n)
> m = n = 4096 (default value, no method to set)
> so output is about 4k * 4k * (4 + 4 + 8) = 256M. This is a large memory and
> cause serious GC problem, and it is frequently OOM.
> Actually, we don't need to save all the temp result. Support we recommend
> topK (topK is about 10, or 20) product for each user, we only need 4k * topK
> * (4 + 4 + 8) memory to save the temp result.
