Then restore the random read advice in finishMerge. The reason I suggest this is that so far all options and discussions lead to sharing the same underlying memory, so regardless on the actual instance here, then the advice is going to change on the memory. Makes sense to me, and if we switch to `close` we can switch to the approach mentioned by @jpountz in https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/13985#discussion_r1835532510 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
