I second that, recalling some very rough API transitions/incompatibilities in the past (e.g., around 'LeastSquaresOptimizer')... --Wilhelm -- View this message in context: http://apache-commons.680414.n4.nabble.com/Re-Math-Re-LU-decomposition-very-SLOW-commons-math3-linear-tp4692297p4692482.ht

Makes all sense. I will prepare a "minimally invasive" patch that exactly mimics the original behavior. In a possible future version, I think interfaces should be used from the beginning, even if there is only a small chance that different implementations arise. It is hard/impossible to resolve th

Hi Gilles, thanks for pointing me to the JIRA system - will try to do my best ;-) I am aware of the potential of breaking existing code with any such changes. However, expected problems seem to be minor in this case. Also, if existing code relies on such obvious design flaws it should be fixed as

OK, I built 'LUDecomposition' back to match the original Jama version and fixed a few things on the way. Performance is consistently much better and I did not notice any differences in numerical accuracy. While this appears to be the same algorithm, I have not figured out why (though I can see WHER

I am fine to submit a PR that reverts LUDecomposition to the standard method used in Jama. --Wilhelm -- View this message in context: http://apache-commons.680414.n4.nabble.com/Re-Math-Re-LU-decomposition-very-SLOW-commons-math3-linear-tp4692297p4692305.html Sent from the Commons - Dev mailin
