Hi Ben,

I can recall seeing convergence warnings for scikit-learn's logistic regression 
model on datasets in the past as well. Which solver did you use for 
LogisticRegression in sklearn? If you haven't done so, have used the lbfgs 
solver? I.e.,

LogisticRegression(..., solver='lbfgs')?

Best,
Sebastian
