Dmitriy Lyubimov commented on MAHOUT-1490:
------------------------------------------

i did not say it was bad. I said the same things, it is good for certain 
algorithms. Actually, a lot of algorithms, of iterative nature.

I am just thinking how to expose cost to algorithm layer so it doesn't do naive 
things. The programming model, it is all about it. imagine an algorithm that 
does something like gaussian elimnation or givens QR. Obviously compression 
doesn't help here since inflate/deflate cycle will cost more than any benefits 
of compressed reads, it would seem it would be faster with just uncompressed 
vectors.

Fortunately we don't have to care about delayed updates since we are doing 100% 
in-core local operation here.
