Right, and I don't feel a particular need to be Hadoop only. We
should be pragmatic in our choices and use what we think works best.
Also, we don't have to be all about distributed, either. I think we
can get along just fine w/ non distributed as well.

you can using it. The practice is to check in sequential versions

algorithms first, then parallel. Many algorithms don't have parallel
versions yet.

It's a silly question :P but can you use Mahout without using
Hadoop ? do
you mean that when having one single 'multi-core" machine, one can
use
Mahout alone ? (Ok, that's two silly questions)
