-------------------------------------
Thanks for pointing this out! I'll have a look at it.
Do you have a reproducible example / suggestions of where this happened?
> LocalitySensitiveHashSearch.search does not respect search result limit

> Key: MAHOUT-1312
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1312
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Math
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Stevo Slavic
> Assignee: Dan Filimon
> Priority: Minor
>
> According to documented {{org.apache.mahout.math.neighborhood.Searcher}},
> {{public abstract List<WeightedThing<Vector>> search(Vector query, int
> limit)}} contract, {{limit}} should be the number of results to return.
> {{LocalitySensitiveHashSearch}} implements {{Searcher}} but does not respect
> that contract, as it can return more results than the given limit.
> This issue was encountered while debugging MAHOUT-1302.
