Thank you very much for this. Some more questions inline...

It's not the limiting of the results that's the problem, it's the way the search is expanded. Since this is an autocomplete, when the user types, for example "a" or a Japanese character "あ", I am using PrefixFilter for this, so I guess the search turns into "a*" and "あ*" respectively. In the archive, the related posts I read either refer to a DateRange (where it is possible to search first by year, then month... etc.), or they suggest to increase the max count. Neither of these solutions work in my case... It's not a date, and I have no idea of the results in advance and it would not be practical or elegant to speculate on the results (for example first try aa*~ab* and see what that gives, etc.). I can get access to the "weight" values of the terms (a data field determined by their frequency of use), so I'll try something related to that. For people with more experience, would that be a good path to take? Otherwise, would a reasonable solution be to override or re-implement PrefixFilter? Thank you so much!
