[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1084) increase default maxFieldLength?

["Michael McCandless (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1084?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12559440#action_12559440 ] 

Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1084:
--------------------------------------------

+1

Users frequently trip up on this one, and the fact that we silently truncate at 10,000 tokens is "unexpected".  I think the default should be Integer.MAX_VALUE.

How about doing this for 2.4?

> To my understanding, Lucene 2.3 will easily index large documents. So shouldn't we get rid of the 10,000 default limit for the field length? 10,000 isn't that much and as Lucene doesn't have any error logging by default, this is a common problem for users that is difficult to debug if you don't know where to look.
> A better new default might be Integer.MAX_VALUE.
