Usage of BooleanQuery and TermsQuery in Lucene Search

When dealing with entities that have many references, you might encounter the BooleanQuery.maxClauseCount which is 1024 by default. This value is already pretty high. But if a query exceeds this value, you should be aware that this is a warning indicator for your performance. 

A TermsQuery might be more appropriate in this case, looking somewhat like

result = result.filter(f.terms().field("entity_id").matchingAny(idList.stream().map(idToSearch -> String.valueOf(idToSearch)).collect(Collectors.toList())));
