Hi, (cross-posting to both Solr and Lucene user lists because while this is a Lucene-level question, I suspect a lot of people who know about this or are interested in this subject are actually on the Solr list)
I have a large append-only index and I looked at merge policies hoping to identify one that is naturally more suitable for indices without any updates and deletions, just adds. I've read http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_6_0/core/org/apache/lucene/index/TieredMergePolicy.htmland the javadocs for its cousins, but it doesn't look like any of them is more suited for append-only index than the other ones and Tiered MP having more knobs is probably the best one to use..... I was wondering if I was missing something, if one of the MPs is in fact better for append-only indices OR if one can suggest how one could write a custom MP that's specialized for append-only indices.
