I disagree, as the user who doesn't get the "Fotokopie" matches will not understand what's going on. He will assume that there are no such documents, which is wrong. If there's a timeout the user will at least notice something is wrong. Besides that, it's the developers responsibility to get things fast enough. If he decides to do so with a prefix that might be okay for his use case. I'll try to do some performance tests with fuzzy query tomorrow on a 250,000 document index.
