> Following https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/30810, I've continued looking for ways to accelerate the usage of BLAS in Spark. With this PR, I integrate work done in the [{{dev.ludovic.netlib}}|https://github.com/luhenry/netlib/] Maven package.
> The {{dev.ludovic.netlib}} library wraps the original {{com.github.fommil.netlib}} library and focus on accelerating the linear algebra routines in use in Spark. When running the {{org.apache.spark.ml.linalg.BLASBenchmark}}benchmarking suite, I get the results at [1] on an Intel machine. Moreover, this library is thoroughly tested to return the exact same results as the reference implementation.
> Under the hood, it reimplements the necessary algorithms in pure autovectorization-friendly Java 8, as well as takes advantage of the Vector API and Foreign Linker API introduced in JDK 16 when available.
