             Summary: Bulk merges for stored fields when index sorting is 
enabled
                 Key: LUCENE-9935
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9935
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adrien Grand


Today stored fields disable bulk merges entirely when index sorting is enabled. 
However when sorting by low-cardinality fields or when the index sort is 
correlated with the order in which documents get indexed, we could likely still 
have efficient bulk merges.

For instance, if you are merging two segments that are sorted on a field that 
can only take 2 values, one could bulk merge the first half of the first 
segment, then the first half of the second segment, then the second half of the 
first segment, and finally the second half of the second segment.
