Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-504:
------------------------------------
This really should be fixed. I agree with Nadav, the problem is with the
Queries that use MaxClauses to build the priority queue - its just not good use
of the queue.
I also agree with Doron that its really two distinct issues though:
1. FuzzyQuery et al should be using lazy allocation of some kind. It makes no
sense to create an array that large for every multi term query, especially when
we direct users to possibly use Integer.MAX_VALUE.
2. The FAQ should not say to use Integer.MAX_VALUE if its going to kak with
FuzzyQuery. At a minimum, FuzzyQuery should not init the priority queue larger
than Integer.MAX_VALUE-1.
I suppose, that almost combines the 2 issues though - we are telling users to
set the max clauses to a number that will force ridiculously wasteful memory
allocation. Almost seems like both issues really need to be addressed together.
Or maybe just the FAQ changed :)

> PriorityQueue creates an "java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException" when
> initialized with Integer.MAX_VALUE, because Integer overflows. I think this
> could be a general problem with PriorityQueue. The Error occured when I set
> BooleanQuery.MaxClauseCount to Integer.MAX_VALUE and user a FuzzyQuery for
> searching.
