Liz Merkhofer commented on MAHOUT-962:
--------------------------------------
Thought this was broken in 0.8 because my dictionary file wasn't getting
smaller until I saw this Stack Overflow post - words are still saved so
vectors/dictionary are not shorter, but 0's are stored.

In case it saves someone the troubleshooting!

> This is similar to the same reasoning behind the fix for MAHOUT-957. The
> desired output is term frequency vectors, but I want terms filtered by their
> min and max DF values. This might be valid in LDA, where tf vectors is
> desired for input, but filtering out the maxDFPercent is also useful.
> Currently minDF and maxDFPercent are only used when calculating tfidf, and
> the original tv vectors are not updated to represent the term filtering.
