Hi everyone,
   I am currently trying to update from an old dovecot 2.3 setup with
   fts-lucene to 2.4.2 with fts-flatcurve.
   However, I am seeing a giant jump in the size of the indexes.
   For an email account that takes 12GB of storage, I get the following index
   sizes:

     o lucene: 270 MB
     o flatcurve: 2400 MB

   That is almost a 10x increase in the index size (with flatcurve the
   indexes represent 20% of the size of the mailbox).
   Considering I have a mailbox that takes 270GB, I can't imagine the size of
   the indexes.
   Am I doing something wrong with flatcurve? How can the indexes be so much
   larger than lucene?
   I took the default flatcurve configuration from the Ubuntu 26.04 install:
   mail_plugins {
     fts = yes
     fts_flatcurve = yes
   }

   fts_autoindex = yes

   language_filters = normalizer-icu snowball stopwords

   language_tokenizers = generic email-address
   language_tokenizer_generic_algorithm = simple

   language en {
     default = yes
     filters = lowercase snowball english-possessive stopwords
   }

   fts flatcurve {
     # All of these are optional, and indicate the default values.
     # They are listed here for documentation purposes; most people should
   not
     # need to define/override in their config.
     # commit_limit = 500
     # max_term_size = 30
     # min_term_size = 2
     # optimize_limit = 10
     # rotate_count = 5000
     # rotate_time = 5000
     substring_search = yes
   }
   Any help/insight would be greatly appreciated.
   Best regards,
   -J
