I'm not even sure what this is intended to produce. All documents with
terms two or more characters long? What use-case is this intended to
solve?
Because unless there's a _really_ good reason to do this, I'd just
dis-allow pure-wildcard queries on the app end.
This seems like an XY question.
Unfortunately the timeAllowed parameter doesn't apply to the part of the
processing that makes wildcard queries so slow. It only applies to a later part
of the processing when the matching documents are being collected. There's some
discussion in the original ticket that implemented this
