Thanks Erick, good point on maxMergedSegmentMB, many of my segments really
are max out.
My index isn't 800G, but it's not far from it - it's about 250G per server.
I have high confidence in Solr and my EC2 i3-2xl instances, so far I got
pretty good results.

So I'm guessing you have something on the order of an 800G index?
The max segment size is roughly 5G (by default) and assuming all your segments
are close to the max size I get 160 * 5G = 800G, but that may be off.
I think you're barking up the wrong tree if these numbers are close to
correct. Th
To be clear - I'm talking about query performance, not indexing performance.

Thanks for the quick answer Erick,
I'm hoping to improve performance by reducing the number of segments.
Currently I have ~160 segments. Am I wrong thinking it might improve
performance?

The merge rate will be limited by the number of merge threads. You'll merge
more often though so the load will change. That said, I wouldn't be
concerned unless you have a very high indexing rate.
Why do you want to change anyway? Unless you've tried the new settings in a
