Hi Stefan,

In org.apache.nutch.searcher.LuceneQueryOptimizer, the decision was made to convert some range queries into Lucene range filters in order to optimize search speed. Filters of course require query results to operate upon, so they cannot be used alone. It looks like this also avoids a TooManyClauses exception in Lucene which can occur when it expands range queries.

I'm happy with the compromise.

Cheers,
Scott
