------------------------------------
Summary: Improve ALS internal storage
Key: SPARK-3541
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3541
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: ML, MLlib
Reporter: Xiangrui Meng
The internal storage of ALS uses many small objects, which increases the GC
pressure and makes ALS difficult to scale to very large scale, e.g., 50 billion
ratings. In such cases, the full GC may take more than 10 minutes to finish.
That is longer than the default heartbeat timeout and hence executors will be
removed under default settings.
We can use primitive arrays to reduce the number of objects significantly. This
requires big change to the ALS implementation.
