optimizeALS fails due to high CPU requirements #235

Closed nfancy closed 2 years ago

nfancy commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I've recently upgraded to rliger 1.0.0 and noticing that many of my job on HPC are failing due to exceeding the cpu requirement even with not so large dataset which ran fine with the previous version. The job is failing at optimizeALS step. Any pointers is hugely appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Nurun, can you provide more information of the job failure on HPC? For exmaple, the size of the dataset, the resources (CPU, RAM, etc.) requested for the job. For version 1.0.0, we barely modified codes of the function optimizeALS so it could be due to other reasons.
