> Sampling, as currently implemented in Spark, is an O\(n\) operation.  A 
> number of stochastic algorithms achieve speed ups by exploiting O\(k\) 
> sampling, where k is the number of data points to sample.  Examples of such 
> algorithms include KMeans MiniBatch (SPARK-2308) and Stochastic Gradient 
> Descent with mini batching.
> More efficient sampling may be achievable by packing partitions with an 
> ArrayBuffer or other data structure supporting random access.  Since many of 
> these stochastic algorithms perform repeated rounds of sampling, it may be 
> feasible to perform a transformation to change the backing data structure 
> followed by multiple rounds of sampling.
