> Queries with too many asterisks causing 100% CPU usage
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-2620
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2620
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Search
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Environment: Debian Lenny with Tomcat 5.5 and Mac OS X 10.6 with
> Tomcat 6, probably others
> Reporter: Nick Barkas
> Assignee: Robert Muir
> Fix For: 2.9.4, 3.0.3, 3.1
>
> Attachments: LUCENE-2620_3x.patch, lucene-asterisks.diff

> If a search query has many adjacent asterisks (e.g. fo**************obar), I
> can get my webapp caught in a loop that does not seem to end in a reasonable
> amount of time and may in fact be infinite. For just a few asterisks the
> query eventually does return some results, but as I add more it takes a
> longer and longer amount of time. After about six or seven asterisks the
> query never seems to finish. Even if I abort the search, the thread handling
> the troublesome query continues running in the background and pinning a CPU.
> I found the problem in
> src/java/org/apache/lucene/search/WildcardTermEnum.java on Lucene 3.0.1 and
> it looks like 3.0.2 ought to be affected as well. I'm not sure about trunk,
> though. I have a patch that fixes the problem for me in 3.0.1.
