Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2970:
-------------------------------------
i ran the random test for a good hour:
{noformat}
junit-sequential:
[junit] Testsuite: org.apache.lucene.util.automaton.TestSpecialOperations
[junit] Tests run: 10000, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Time elapsed: 3,908.995
sec
[junit]
{noformat}
I'll rename the old method (in the testUtil for testing correctness) to *Slow
as Mike suggested,
with an additional warning that if we ever start generating larger automata for
testing, it will
blow up, and commit.
> SpecialOperations.isFinite can have TERRIBLE TERRIBLE runtime in certain
> situations

> in an application of mine, i experienced some very slow query times with
> finite automata (all the DFAs are acyclic)
> It turned out, the slowdown is some terrible runtime in
> SpecialOperations.isFinite <-- this is used to determine if the DFA is
> acyclic or not.
> (in this case I am talking about even up to minutes of cpu).
