> The termIndexInterval comment and example settings in the example 
> solrconfig.xml file is left over from Solr 3.x versions.  It does not apply 
> to the default Solr  4.x installation and its presence in the example is 
> confusing.  
> According to the JavaDocs for IndexWriterConfig, the Lucene level
> implementations of setTermIndexInterval and setReaderTermsIndexDivisor these 
> do not apply to the default Solr4 PostingsFormat implementation.  
> From 
> (http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_10_0/core/org/apache/lucene/index/IndexWriterConfig.html#setTermIndexInterval%28int%29
>  )
> "This parameter does not apply to all PostingsFormat implementations, 
> including the default one in this release. It only makes sense for term 
> indexes that are implemented as a fixed gap between terms. For example, 
> Lucene41PostingsFormat implements the term index instead based upon how terms 
> share prefixes. To configure its parameters (the minimum and maximum size for 
> a block), you would instead use 
> Lucene41PostingsFormat.Lucene41PostingsFormat(int, int). which can also be 
> configured on a per-field basis:"
> The (soon to be ) attached patch just removes the outdated example. 
> Documentation on the wiki and Solr ref guide should also be updated.
> If the latest Solr default postings format can be configured from Solr, 
> perhaps someone with knowledge of the use case and experience configuring it 
> could provide a suitable example.   Since the Solr 4 default postingsformat 
> is so much more efficient than Solr 3.x, there might no longer be a use case 
> for messing with the parameters.
