I think the optimization may be similar to the one done in AutomatonTermsEnum? https://github.com/apache/lucene/blob/main/lucene/core/src/java/org/apache/lucene/index/AutomatonTermsEnum.java#L149-L153 When "ping-ponging" the term dictionary against the automaton, it tracks `visited` bitset and looks for such loops in the automaton. when it finds one, it temporarily acts like a TermRangeQuery. I think, it works a bit more general than just prefixquery and also helps with regex and wildcard queries too. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
