Hi,

I'm using the PFPGrowth code (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-157) 
from Mahout 0.3 and it works fine on my local box. However, when I try to get 
it to run on our grid cluster, it amazingly does not allow any parameters to be 
passed to Hadoop. When I look at the code 
(mahout/core/src/main/java/org/apache/mahout/fpm/pfpgrowth/PFPGrowth.java), I 
see that there is no way to pass custom configuration parameters (like 
-Dmapred.job.queue.name=X or -libjars or any other parameter for that matter).

I am shocked that it would be done this way. To get this to work, I need to go 
change the actual PFPGrowth.java file, add my conf.set("key", "val") lines, and 
recompile. Is there any other way to do this? Why would it be written in such a 
way that all hadoop parameters are disallowed?

Thanks,
Aurora
