Hello,

I have a question about Lucene's max clause counts limit, exposed in
BooleanQuery::setMaxClauseCount (and now IndexSearcher).

The recommendation seems to be that these limits shouldn't be modified, but
instead more efficient queries should be constructed. Let's say the limits
are bumped to int max or some very high number -- I'm wondering what the
effects of this would be. Would the execution of smaller queries be
affected? Would larger queries execute as efficiently as possible? Or would
some things start to break somewhere?
