----------------------------------------
{quote}There were a few conflicts when backporting to branch_8x, so you might
want to take a second look

I verified also branch_8x, that seems good to me.
I created the follow up item for removing cachedRootArcs LUCENE-9049.
> Reduce size of FSTs due to use of direct-addressing encoding
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-8920
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8920
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Michael Sokolov
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 8.4
>
> Attachments: TestTermsDictRamBytesUsed.java
>
> Time Spent: 4.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Some data can lead to worst-case ~4x RAM usage due to this optimization.
> Several ideas were suggested to combat this on the mailing list:
> bq. I think we can improve thesituation here by tracking, per-FST instance,
> the size increase we're seeing while building (or perhaps do a preliminary
> pass before building) in order to decide whether to apply the encoding.
> bq. we could also make the encoding a bit more efficient. For instance I
> noticed that arc metadata is pretty large in some cases (in the 10-20 bytes)
> which make gaps very costly. Associating each label with a dense id and
> having an intermediate lookup, ie. lookup label -> id and then id->arc offset
> instead of doing label->arc directly could save a lot of space in some cases?
> Also it seems that we are repeating the label in the arc metadata when
> array-with-gaps is used, even though it shouldn't be necessary since the
> label is implicit from the address?
