sorry, but i think there is no need for special prefix search functions in the 
judy arrays.
Look at my example previously posted:

for(pval = JudySLFirst(Jnew, curl, NULL); pval; pval = JudySLNext(Jnew, curl, 
NULL)) {
  if(memcmp(curl, prefix, prefixlen)) break;
}Several people have proposed improvemens to the judy arrays, but nothing had 
happened until today.
The discussions about cache lines are outdated with today CPUs.

For me the 2 major improvements to judy arrays are:
1  - Using Judy arrays for non null terminated strings (this is currently a big 
drawback).
2  - Improving performance of the JudySLNext, JudySLPrev by using a cursor 
structure as parameter.
      The path of the Judy-three and the current string must be stored in this 
structure.

From my basic knowledge of the structure, it seems that a prefix-search is 
simply a First where you quit early if it turns out you would have to go up a 
level.  So that might be a simple matter of leaving out some code that the 
normal JudySLFirst() requires.

I have a follow-up question about this.  I just peeked at the source
    for JudySLFirst(), and it turns out that it works by calling
    JudySLGet(), then calling JudySLNext() if it failed.  Doesn't that
    involve a slight duplication of work?  Doesn't it traverse to
    Index's branch once during JudySLGet() to discover that there is no
    corresponding value, and then a second time at the beginning of the
    JudySLNext()?

Could you get a slight improvement by making a private version of
    JudySLGet() that returns the location of Index's branch for
    subsequent use in seeding the call to JudySLNext()? Or does all this
    happen in the cache quickly enough not to make a difference?
