Eric is most welcome to use any other random_state.

Last time, Leo was testing using random_state==1 However, it is best to use a new random seed for each major re-evaluation, that we test on a truly bind data.

Increasing the number of queries or changing the seed, won't make truly weak methods much faster. However, in my experience, this can easily result in 10-30% changes in performance. This may affect relative performance of methods with similar performance.

I have also updated the readme file and deleted the precomputed glove queries. These need to be recomputed anyways.

Some relatively minor edits. Also, currently NMSLIB uses the branch pserv. We will try to merge it with the master branch ASAP and make a release. Then, we will update the installation script.
