Robert Muir commented on SOLR-2462:
-----------------------------------
OK, this is looking better, but we can now keep the PQ at a fixed size, pretend
for this example that maximumRequiredSuggestions = 20.
the idea is after your offer(), you check if the pq's size is >
maximumRequiredSuggestions (say its 21), and then if so, you poll() to remove
the lowest element (its now 20 again)
this way, the size never grows past 20... and i then think you can then remove
the rankedPossibilities < 10000 check because it will never get larger than the
user's requested amount.

> When using "spellcheck.collate", class SpellPossibilityIterator creates a
> ranked list of *every* possible correction combination. But if returning
> several corrections per term, and if several words are misspelled, the
> existing algorithm uses a huge amount of memory.
> This bug was introduced with SOLR-2010. However, it is triggered anytime
> "spellcheck.collate" is used. It is not necessary to use any features that
> were added with SOLR-2010.
> We were in Production with Solr for 1 1/2 days and this bug started taking
> our Solr servers down with "infinite" GC loops. It was pretty easy for this
> to happen as occasionally a user will accidently paste the URL into the
> Search box on our app. This URL results in a search with ~12 misspelled
> words. We have "spellcheck.count" set to 15.
