Suneel Marthi commented on MAHOUT-1217:
---------------------------------------

a) This issue is not related to the Distance Measure that's being used.
b) It only happens in FastProjection Search, works fine with Projection Search. I suspect its got to do with the Array sort that's happening in FastProjection Search.

> When updating a Centroid in StreamingKMeans, the Centroid needs to be removed and its updated version added.
> When removing points in a searcher that are already there, sometimes the searcher fails to return the closest point (the one being searched for) causing a RuntimeException.
> This has been observed for TF-IDF vectors with SquaredEuclideanDistance and CosineDistance and FastProjectionSearch.
