Description

I have a SolrCloud cluster and when I use the JSON facet API to do term faceting like this:

json.facet={"results":{"type": "terms", "field": "my_field", "limit": 100, "offset": 100, "numBuckets": true}}

it does work correctly.
However the numBuckets tells me in return that I have more than 6 millions buckets but as soon as I start to grow the offset value to browse these buckets, it doesn't return anything anymore (when I reach an offset of around 300).
What is even weirder is that if I put a bigger limit, like 10'000, I can increase the offset until around 29'000 before it doesn't return anything.
And the returned numBuckets doesn't change all the while.

It is a big problem because we can't paginate till the end of the buckets.

Might be related to SOLR-7452, I don't know...
