             Summary: LuceneDictionaryImpl and iv_maxHits
                 Key: CTAKES-67
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-67
             Project: cTAKES
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ctakes-dictionary-lookup
    Affects Versions: 2.6-incubating, 3.0-incubating
            Reporter: Steven Bethard


The default value for LuceneDictionaryImpl's iv_maxHits is Integer.MAX_VALUE, and this class uses iv_maxHits in this call:

	 topDoc = iv_searcher.search(query.parse(str.replace('-', ' ')), iv_maxHits);

This search method is only intended for use with a max hits up to about 100 items:

If you really want all the hits, then it'll speed things up (by a lot, in my experience) to write a simple Collector subclass that just collects them all.
