> Or does that 50% check trump the flooring? It does trump the flooring indeed. The reasoning is that even if a user is happy to spend lots of hardware resources on merging, they would likely still be unhappy with merging running in quadratic time. That said, the 50% check may be too conservative. We could look into relaxing it or making it a function of `numSegmentsPerTier` (only increasing the segment size by 50% when you merge 10 segments at once sounds bad, less so when you merge 2 segments at once?). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
