Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-300:
----------------------------------

Tiny stuff -- in things like dotSelf(), you don't need to call element.get() 
twice. Save its value in a local. Seems trivial until you consider a 
million-element vector dotting itself in a tight loop. Saving billions of 
method calls adds up.

maxValue() -- don't set hasNoElements every loop. Set it once according to the 
initial value of hasNext().

Otherwise looks good and free to commit, especially if it's for 0.3.

> AbstractVector operations like times
>   public Vector times(double x) {
>     Vector result = clone();
>     Iterator<Element> iter = iterateNonZero();
>     while (iter.hasNext()) {
>       Element element = iter.next();

>       result.setQuick(index, element.get() * x);
>     }
>     return result;
>   }
> should be implemented as follows
>  public Vector times(double x) {
>     Vector result = clone();
>     Iterator<Element> iter = result.iterateNonZero();
>     while (iter.hasNext()) {
>       Element element = iter.next();
