> The current implementation of toBlockMatrix on IndexedRowMatrix is insufficient. It is implemented by first converting the IndexedRowMatrix to a CoordinateMatrix, then converting that CoordinateMatrix to a BlockMatrix. Not only is this slower than it needs to be, it also means that the created BlockMatrix ends up being backed by instances of SparseMatrix, which a user may not want. Users need an option to convert from IndexedRowMatrix to BlockMatrix that backs the BlockMatrix with local instances of DenseMatrix.
