Lucene doesn't handle queries where the start of the term is not known
very efficiently.

Is it really able to handle them at all? I thought "*foo"-type queries were
not supported.

They are not supported by the QueryParser, but an API created WildcardQuery supports it.


I certainly do not recommend using prefix-style wildcard queries though, knowing what happens under the covers.
