Description

There is a noticeable lag in the mahout spark-shell. When compared to Spark's spark-shell it is easy to see. This makes things like Auto Complete difficult to work with.

Since the mahout spark-shell is just an extension of the Spark spark-shell, this shouldn't be happening.

This slow down makes the shell clunky and a bit difficult to work with. Often times when people want to try out mahout, they play around with the shell, so It would be good to get this fixed up, so people don't leave with a bad impression of mahout.
