Sean Owen commented on SPARK-17448:
-----------------------------------

That's true in a thousand contexts: if you make an array that's too big you run 
out of memory.
There's no real way to know what the limit of k is. The error is appropriate 
and clear. I don't see a change to make here.

> There should a limit of k in mllib.Kmeans
