Hey, David,

I´ve been reading the thread and I think that is one of the most educative
mail-threads I´ve read in Solr mailing list. Just for curiosity: internally
for Solr, is it the same a query like "field:*" and "field:[* TO *]"? I
think that it´s expected to receive the same number of numFound documents,
but I would like to know the internal behavior of Solr.

Best regards,

- Luis Cappa
