One question. Assume I have clustered and new data has been added after
that, according to the docs that data is added "outside" of the
clustered data. What happens when I run cluster again? I would assume
its smart and to only clusteres the new data, i.e. adding it to the
already created clusters, as apporpriate, so the execution time would be
a lot lower, right? or would it run through and recluster everything
from scratch again?
