// The clustering problem has the following characteristics:
//  (A) - Low dimension (dimensions are typically proc resource units,
//    typically < 10).
//  (B) - Number of points : ~thousands (points are measurements of an MCInst)
//  (C) - Number of clusters: ~tens.
//  (D) - The number of clusters is not known /a priory/.
//  (E) - The amount of noise is relatively small.
// The problem is rather small. In terms of algorithms, (D) disqualifies
// k-means and makes algorithms such as DBSCAN[1] or OPTICS[2] more applicable.
//
// We've used DBSCAN here because it's simple to implement. This is a pretty
// straightforward and inefficient implementation of the pseudocode in [2].
