but before committing I think we should add a
newSearcher to LuceneTestCase, which randomly chooses whether the
searcher uses threads, and cutover tests to use this instead of making
their own IndexSearcher.

I did this on LUCENE-2751, but the tests won't all pass until we fix the 
FieldCache autodetect 
synchronization bug (the Numerics tests will fail with multiple threads)...

> We've discussed cleaning up our *Searcher stack for some time... I
> think we should try to do this before releasing 4.0.
> So I'm attaching an initial patch which:
>   * Removes Searcher, Searchable, absorbing all their methods into 
> IndexSearcher
>   * Removes contrib/remote
>   * Removes MultiSearcher
>   * Absorbs ParallelMultiSearcher into IndexSearcher (ie you can now
>     pass useThreads=true, or a custom ES to the ctor)
> The patch is rough -- I just ripped stuff out, did search/replace to
> IndexSearcher, etc.  EG nothing is directly testing using threads with
> IndexSearcher, but before committing I think we should add a
> newSearcher to LuceneTestCase, which randomly chooses whether the
> searcher uses threads, and cutover tests to use this instead of making
> their own IndexSearcher.
> I think MultiSearcher has a useful purpose, but as it is today it's
> too low-level, eg it shouldn't be involved in rewriting queries: the
> Query.combine method is scary.  Maybe in its place we make a higher
> level class, with limited API, that's able to federate search across
> multiple IndexSearchers?  It'd also be able to optionally use thread
> per IndexSearcher.
