>                 Key: SPARK-10808
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10808
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Documentation
>          Components: Documentation, MLlib
>            Reporter: Joseph K. Bradley
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Based on feedback like [SPARK-10791], we should discuss the computational and communication complexity of LDA and its optimizers in the MLlib Programming Guide.  E.g.:
> * Online LDA can be faster than EM.
> * To make online LDA run faster, you can use a smaller miniBatchFraction.
> * Communication
> ** For EM, communication on each iteration is on the order of # topics * (vocabSize + # docs).
> ** For online LDA, communication on each iteration is on the order of # topics * vocabSize.
> * Decreasing vocabSize and # topics can speed things up.  It's often fine to eliminate uncommon words, unless you are trying to create a very large number of topics.
