Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-4845:
--------------------------------------------

I like this approach!  (Add epsilon transitions after the automaton is built).

I managed to build the FreeDB suggest using this but ... it required a lot of 
RAM: it OOM'd at 14 GB heap but finished successfully at 20 GB heap.

Took a longish time to build too, and made a biggish FST (more than 2X larger 
than the index):

  * 2466 sec to build
  * FST is 8.6 GB
  * Prefix 2: 2527.5 lookups/sec
  * Prefix 4: 1681.7 lookups/sec
  * Prefix 6: 1948.3 lookups/sec
  * Prefix 8: 2050.9 lookups/sec
  * Prefix 10: 2076.0 lookups/sec

We should try the N prefix limit ... but I don't really like that.  Maybe we 
should just offer both approaches ...

> Our current suggester impls do prefix matching of the incoming text
> against all compiled suggestions, but in some cases it's useful to
> allow infix matching.  E.g, Netflix does infix suggestions in their
> search box.
> I did a straightforward impl, just using a normal Lucene index, and
> using PostingsHighlighter to highlight matching tokens in the
> suggestions.
> I think this likely only works well when your suggestions have a
> strong prior ranking (weight input to build), eg Netflix knows
> the popularity of movies.
