Adam Kunicki commented on SPARK-3541:
-------------------------------------
Has anyone considered that userId: Int and productId: Int may not make sense in
most real-life use cases?
It requires an extra mapping of your ids (e.g. Long, or String even) to a space
like Int and mapping back before you have any useable information.
> Improve ALS internal storage

> 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.
