Drew Farris commented on MAHOUT-320: ------------------------------------ I haven't reviewed the round of patches, when I wrote the initial patch the '^ 0x80' was in there so that the byte array holding the ints would be sorted in natural int order. > Modify IntPairWritable in LDA implementation to be binary comparable to > improve performance. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-320 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-320 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Clustering > Affects Versions: 0.3 > Reporter: Drew Farris > Assignee: Robin Anil > Priority: Minor > Attachments: MAHOUT-320.patch, MAHOUT-320.patch, MAHOUT-320.patch, > MAHOUT-320.patch, MAHOUT-320.patch > > > Per discussion with Robin, modifying o.a.m.clustering.lda.IntPairWritable to > be binary comparable will improve the performance of the comparison > operations during a sort because no marshaling will need to occur to compare > IntPairWritable instances. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
