What I wanted to add: Merging is mostly an IO thing. More cores would not necessarily make it faster (your SSD has a limited amount of parallelism). It may be better on different indexes placed on different SSDs, but those would have separate merge schedulers anyways. If you look a few lines up in code: If its a harddisk and spins the maximum number of threads is 1. P.S.: When we really want to change this, the documentation (javadocs) needs update, too. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
