: Mikhail, Thanks for the comment. Is this considered a bug or as a new : feature with no plan to address this type of query expansion in further : releases?
It is a documented feature in Lucene (to prevent query explosion) with the change in behavior called out in the "Major Changes" section of the Solr upgrade notes when the behavior was changed in Solr 9.0... https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/upgrade-notes/major-changes-in-solr-9.html#querying-and-indexing-2 "solr.xml maxBooleanClauses is now enforced recursively. Users who upgrade from prior versions of Solr may find that some requests involving complex internal query structures (Example: long query strings using edismax with many qf and pf fields that include query time synonym expansion) which worked in the past now hit this limit and fail. Users in this situation are advised to consider the complexity of their queries/configuration, and increase the value of maxBooleanClauses if warranted." -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
