Hi,

How does LL(*) work in ANTLR v3? Does it travel down the grammar to find 
the terminals that disambiguate the alternatives and use them at runtime 
as lookaheads? Or as predicates?

What is the runtime cost of LL(*) vs. predicates vs. higher k (k for the 
rule not for entire grammar)?

Thanks,
Martin
