I am also looking for solution to this problem. Elasticsearch 6 has increased ignore\_above limit [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/keyword.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/keyword.html). But underlying lucene limit is still 32766 and elasticsearch fails with "Document contains at least one immense term in" error. It seems elasticsearch community has no solution to this problem : [ElasticSearch 6.2.4 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document contains at least one immense term](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/elasticsearch-6-2-4-java-lang-illegalargumentexception-document-contains-at-least-one-immense-term/154122).
