> In "LocalLeastSquaresProblem" (private inner class defined in
> "o.a.c.m.fitting.leastsquares.LeastSquaresFactory"), the "evaluate" method
> computes the values of both the model and the Jacobian at creation of the
> "Evaluation" instance.
> Optimizers ("LevenbergMarquardtOptimizer" in particular) may not need both
> for all of the evaluated points. And this can lead to too many evaluations of
> the model which in some applications is the costliest part.
> In my use-case, the current code in "o.a.c.m.fitting.leastquares" leads to a
> performance degradation of about 20% w.r.t. the implementation in
> "o.a.c.m.optim.nonlinear.vector.jacobian".
