[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (MAHOUT-473) add parameter -Dmapred.reduce.tasks when call job RowSimilarityJob in RecommenderJob

--------------------------------------------------------------

Because RowSimilarityJob run a in separated process ,the properties will lost from the main Job.

The properties must be set by the RecommenderJob
