-As a rule, indexing will be fairly swift on modern machines until you have
-well over 500 documents indexed, or have an incredibly diverse vocabulary
-for your documents.
-</p>
-<p>
-The optional parameter &quot;cutoff&quot; is a tuning parameter. When the
-index is built, a certain number of s-values are discarded from the system.
-The cutoff parameter tells the indexer how many of these values to keep. A
-value of 1 for cutoff means that no semantic analysis will take place,
-turning the <a href="LSI.html">LSI</a> class into a simple vector search
-engine.

-This function allows for text-based search of your index. Unlike other
-functions like <a href="LSI.html#M000035">find_related</a> and classify,
-search only takes short strings. It will also ignore factors like repeated
-words. It is best for short, google-like search terms. A search will first
-priortize lexical relationships, then semantic ones.
-</p>
-<p>
-While this may seem backwards compared to the other functions that <a
-href="LSI.html">LSI</a> supports, it is actually the same algorithm, just
-applied on a smaller document.
