Issues with memory use and inconsistent or state-influenced results when using 
CBayesAlgorithm

                 Key: MAHOUT-487
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-487
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Classification
    Affects Versions: 0.3
            Reporter: Drew Farris
            Priority: Minor


Came across this digging through the mailing list archives for something else, 
probably worth tracking as an issue.

During classification, every word still unknown is added to 
featureDictionary. This leads to the excessive growth if lots of texts 
with unknown words are to be classified. The inconsistency is caused by 
using a "vocabCount" that is not reset after each classification. 
Indeed, featureDictionary.size() is used for "vocabCount", which 
increases every time new unknown words are discovered.

Alternately per Robin:

We can remove the addition features to the
dictionary altogether. Will yield better performance, and lock down the
model. Will require a bit more modification
