Right, mergeFactor pre-dates lucene MergePolicies... I think some parameters like this are still useful too. It makes sense to be able to set the mergeFactor or the maximum size that any segment can grow to without knowing (or caring) about exactly what merge policy is the default these days, or what it does. Configuring a specific merge policy is definitely more expert level. -Yonik http://heliosearch.org - native code faceting, facet functions, sub-facets, off-heap data --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
