Still looks to me like you're approaching the problem from the wrong
side or don't

Thanks for the reply everyone!
I've spent some time looking at tests and source code and I've learned a
lot about Lucene's Automata and FST. Way more productive than scanning
javadocs. Thanks for the hint.

Right, forgot about that. There are still some trappy object-heavy
utilities like this one:

Are you looking for a historical book on Lucene development or are you
looking to solve
Hello everyone,
Recently I've watched a few videos and read a few blog posts on Lucene's
Automata and how one can speed up things by 100x when properly using
Automata and Transducers. "I can definitely use a boost like this", right?
The problem is that this material I've read was writen to Lucene
