> 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.
