Recommended value: 500
Initial value: 500
Strategy: Start with the parameter set to 500, and increase it if you see that the terms at the bottom of your related terms list (terms 100-120 or so) are seen in fewer than 3 records.
Note that the recommended value of 500 is for data sets with 20 or more terms tagged onto each record. Use a higher value for data sets with fewer terms per record. If an average record has only 2 to 3 terms per record, set this value to 2000. A good rule of thumb for this value is: when the 120 most frequent terms are sampled for clustering, the 120th term should be present in at least 3 records. If it is present in fewer, this setting should be increased.
