    By "reduce", did you mean skipping the process of growing trees? The 
FP-Growth algorithm reduces memory requirement using the tree representation of 
candidate sets. If we skip this step, it is hard to call it `FPGrowth`. Did you 
do any performance comparison between your version and the PFP implementation?

    It is important to grow the tree on the mapper side to save communication 
cost. `groupByKey` doesn't do that. I was suggesting using `aggregateByKey`. 
For each key, we start with an empty tree, with `seqOp` growing the tree and 
`combOp` merging two trees. Besides, the partition key is the hash value of the 
last item of the sequence. We should be able to reduce communication cost (see 
my inline comments at L135).
