Set MAF default based on # samples #346

Closed zsloan closed 5 years ago

Abe mentioned during the presentation that it might be a good idea to make the MAF 0.01 for situations with ~1000 samples. This is a pretty easy change to make, so I'll ask Rob about it.

Sure. Default could be a function of n of traits with data.

This change was made a while back, though the logic can still be made more complex if someone can decide upon a good formula to use (currently it just sets it to 0.01 for N>500 and 0.05 otherwise, but I don't want to make it more specific unless someone else signs off on it).

Anyways, closing this since the change mentioned in the issue was already made.
