Carlos González-Cadenas commented on LUCENE-3298:
-------------------------------------------------

I forgot to tell you numbers about our input. We have 2 billion sentences 
without infixes and 6.7 billion sentences with infixes. The 2 billion sentences 
are 32GB compressed (350GB uncompressed) and the 6.7 billion are 132 GB 
compressed (1.4TB uncompressed) 
                
> FST has hard limit max size of 2.1 GB

> The FST uses a single contiguous byte[] under the hood, which in java is 
> indexed by int so we cannot grow this over Integer.MAX_VALUE.  It also 
> internally encodes references to this array as vInt.
> We could switch this to a paged byte[] and make the far larger.
> But I think this is low priority... I'm not going to work on it any time soon.
