cache() is lazy. The data is stored into memory after the first time
it gets materialized. So the first time you call `predict` after you
load the model back from HDFS, it still takes time to load the actual
data. The second time will be much faster. Or you can call
`userJavaRDD.count()` and `productJavaRDD.count()` explicitly to load
both into memory before you create the model. -Xiangrui
