I am using a spark streaming context to stream twitter data using the api below in scala.

I wanted to know how many filter keywords can I give to create streaming function?. (3rd parameter of the function below)

TwitterUtils.createStream(ssc,None,keywords)

    You can enter a set of keywords as a filter to track twitter, according to current limitations you can track up to 400 keywords.

    According to this question, it seems that twitter limits you not according to the numer of filters you supply, but the overall volume you’re allowed to consume. It seems like the limit is %1 of total tweets.
