Tree with Red Olive Shaped Ffruit

I've searched far and wide, and haven't been able to identify this tree. It's quite prodigious in our area, probably an invasive exotic, as I've only seen it in irrigated places. This one is a volunteer in my garden, which I mistakenly left alone, and now it is nearly 20 feet tall after 8 years. I have not seen it flower, but it has produced abundant red fruit the size and shape of olives, but with sweet white flesh and large pits. Every resource I've tried does not produce a match, the feather leaf pattern being the important discriminator. Any help is appreciated.
