Jack Krupansky commented on LUCENE-5791:
----------------------------------------
At least consider clear Javadoc on limitations and performance, such as the
need to keep wildcard patterns "brief".
Maybe consider a limit of how many wildcards can be used in a single wildcard
query. Possibly configurable.
Maybe consider a "trim" mode - if too many wildcards appear, simply trim
trailing portions of the pattern to get under the limit. For example, this test
case might get trimmed to abc*mno*xyz*. This would still match all of the
intended matches, albeit also matching some unintended cases. Maybe a limit of
three wildcards would be reasonable.
Does ? have the same issue, or is it much more linear? Would ???*???*???*??? be
as bad as abc*mno*xyz*pqr* ?
Do adjacent ** get collapsed to a single * ?

> The following "testcase" runs endlessly and produces VERY heavy load.
> ...
> String query = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed
> diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut "
> + "labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed
> diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et "
> + "ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea
> takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. "
> + "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur
> sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt "
> + "ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed
> diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores "
> + "et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no
> sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"; String query =
> query.replaceAll( "\\s+", "*" ); try { QueryParserUtil.parse( query, new
> String[] { "test" }, new Occur[] { Occur.MUST }, new KeywordAnalyzer() ); }
> catch ( Exception e ) { Assert.fail( e.getMessage() ); } ...
> I don't say this testcase makes "sense", nevertheless the question remains
> whether this is a bug or a "feature"?
