FST has hard limit max size of 2.1 GB
-------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-3298
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3298
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core/FSTs
Reporter: Michael McCandless
Priority: Minor
The FST uses a single contiguous byte[] under the hood, which in java is
indexed by int so we cannot grow this over Integer.MAX_VALUE. It also
internally encodes references to this array as vInt.
We could switch this to a paged byte[] and make the far larger.
But I think this is low priority... I'm not going to work on it any time soon.
