             Summary: edismax, synonyms and mm=100%
                 Key: LUCENE-4232
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4232
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Lance Norskog
            Priority: Minor


There is a problem with query-side synonyms, edismax and must-match=100%. 

edismax interprets must-match=100% as "number of terms found by edismax from 
the original query". These terms go through the query analyzer, and the synonym 
filter creates more terms, *but* the must-match term count is not incremented. 
Thus, given a synonym of
{code}
monkeyhouse => monkey house
{code}
the query {{q=big+monkeyhouse&mm=100%}} becomes (effectively) 
{{q=big+monkey+house&mm=2}}. This query finds documents matching only two out 
of three terms {{big+monkey, monkey+house, big+house}}.

This might also be a problem in dismax.
