> It would be nice to be able to estimate the amount of work needed to solve an 
> ALS problem.  The chief components of this "work" are computation time---time 
> spent forming and solving the least squares problems---and communication 
> cost---the number of bytes sent across the network.  Communication cost 
> depends heavily on how the users and products are partitioned.
> We currently do not try to cluster users or products so that fewer feature 
> vectors need to be communicated.  This is intended as a first step toward 
> that end---we ought to be able to tell whether one partitioning is better 
> than another.
