Yep, it is indeed, though I believe this problem can also happen when a
user searches for something like q=a* in a big index. I need a bigger
index to know for sure about that, but from what I've read so far, I'm
fairly certain that this problem is bigger than just the q=* search.
I think my solution when this error is thrown is going to be to bump the
size of the maxBooleanClause and retry the query. Failing that, I'll
have to retry the query with highlighting off.
I suspect this will go away if you use the correct
match-all-docs syntax, i.e. q=*:* rather than q=*
It does, yes.
But I'm not sure what highlighting will do when there's
nothing to highlight on (ie, no query terms to match
against your text field).
I believe it does nothing, thankfully.
