Is there any qualitative difference sequential v MR?

All of Mahout's clustering algos can be run in both MR and non-MR mode.
By default its the MR mode that's executed unless the user chooses the non-MR 
mode by specifiying '-xm sequential' while invoking the driver.

Thank you for the details.
So KMeans could be run in both map-reduce and non-mapreduce version and the
decision will be made in driver, yes?
