I'm just asking because I review a paper where Mahout's SVM support on M/R is mentioned :)
As far as I recall All-Reduce is map + an aggregation tree that feeds back the result? Giraph supports aggregators where every worker instance preaggregates the data, the master computes the final aggregation and feeds it back to the workers. So you could have a 1-level aggregation tree out of the box.
