Dmitriy Lyubimov commented on MAHOUT-376:
-----------------------------------------

Also, if we consider wide matrices instead of tall matrices, then maximum 
number of mappers might be reduced which would affect parallelism on big 
clusters. 

Another consideration for extremely wide matrices i guess is that the A block 
in this case will certainly overshoot several standard DFS blocks so it may 
only be efficient if we force data collocation for a big number of blocks (or 
just increase number of blocks).  I am not sure if hadoop quite there yet to 
tweak that on individual file basis.
