>             Project: Mahout
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Collaborative Filtering
>    Affects Versions: 0.5
>         Environment: Mac OS X 10.6.8
> java version "1.6.0_29"
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_29-b11-402-10M3527)
> Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.4-b02-402, mixed mode)
> This does not matter should be reproducible on every system.

> I am currently tuning my recommender discussed here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.mahout.user/10433.
> As a first step I wrapped my LogLikelihoodSimilarity with an CachingUserSimilarity. I used Java Visual VM to profile the calls. I recognized that I didn't get any performance benefits. So I had a look into the code.
> Actually line 47 this(similarity, dataModel.getNumItems()); in CachingUserSimilarity.java is wrong. If we want to cache all item similarities we need a cache with (dataModel.getNumItems()*(dataModel.getNumItems()-1))/2 possible entries.
> I am now doing this in the constructor. I attached a patch to adjust this in the trunk build.
