             Summary: Enable merge-on-refresh by default?
                 Key: LUCENE-10078
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10078
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Michael McCandless


This is a spinoff from the discussion in LUCENE-10073.

The newish merge-on-refresh ([crazy origin 
story|https://blog.mikemccandless.com/2021/03/open-source-collaboration-or-how-we.html])
 feature is a powerful way to reduce searched segment counts, especially 
helpful for applications using many indexing threads.  Such usage will write 
many tiny segments on each refresh, which could quickly be merged up during the 
{{refresh}} operation.

We would have to implement a default for {{findFullFlushMerges}} (LUCENE-10064 
is open for this), and then we would need 
{{IndexWriterConfig.getMaxFullFlushMergeWaitMillis}} a non-zero value (this 
issue).
