Use the following guidelines for setting mentor_set_name.mentor_pool.size:
Total Number of Items in Database | Suggested Setting |
---|---|
< 1000 | <= 500 |
1000-5000 | <=1000 |
5000-10,000 | <= 5000 |
10,000+ | <= 5000 |
Note: The bigger the mentor pool size, the more likely it is that the mentors chosen for
recommendations will have been selected for their coverage contribution, and not their similarity
contribution. In order to allow the LikeMinds server to select the most reliable mentors and hence
return the most accurate recommendations, you need to carefully balance the size of the mentor pool
with the maximum number of mentors configured for your system.
