Hi Najum,

please write a new mail to ask a question and don't reply to an unrelated thread --> https://people.apache.org/~hossman/#threadhijack

If you write a new mail, I'm sure we can help you with your recommender problem. Can you give us a few more details, such as the similarity that you used, how you did the precomputation and how you exactly measure the response time?

Hi guys,

I´m pretty much new to mahout and I´m working with this problem here:

I have created a precomputed item-item-similarity collection for a 
GenericItemBasedRecommender.
Using the 1M MovieLens data, my item-based recommender is only 40-50% faster 
than without precomputation (like 589.5ms instead 1222.9ms).
But the user-based recommender instead is really fast, it´s like 24.2ms? How 
can this happen?

Why is item-based so slow?
