[jira] [Resolved] (SPARK-23704) PySpark access of individual trees in random forest is slow

>                 Key: SPARK-23704
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23704
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: ML, PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 2.2.1
>         Environment: PySpark 2.2.1 / Windows 10
>            Reporter: Julian King
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: bulk-closed

> Making predictions from a randomForestClassifier PySpark is much faster than making predictions from an individual tree contained within the .trees attribute. 
> In fact, the model.transform call without an action is more than 10x slower for an individual tree vs the model.transform call for the random forest model.
> See [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49297470/slow-individual-tree-access-for-random-forest-in-pyspark] for example with timing.
> Ideally:
>  * Getting a prediction from a single tree should be comparable to or faster than getting predictions from the whole tree
>  * Getting all the predictions from all the individual trees should be comparable in speed to getting the predictions from the random forest
