Hi Andy, That is the case in Spark 1.0, yes. However, as of Spark 1.1 which is coming out very soon, you will be able to run SVD on non-TS matrices.
If you try to apply the current algorithm to a matrix with more than 10,000 columns, you will overburden the master node, which has to compute a 10k x 10k local SVD by itself. This bottleneck has been removed in Spark 1.1, and if you really want it now you can pull the current master from github.
