Shikhar Bhushan commented on LUCENE-6294:
-----------------------------------------

When slicing differnetly than segment-per-slice, it'd probably be desirable to 
distribute large segments by size across the slices, rather than all of them 
ending up in one slice to be searched sequentially.

> IndexSearcher takes an ExecutorService that can be used to parallelize 
> collection execution. This is useful if you want to trade throughput for 
> latency.
> However, this executor service will only be used if you search for top docs. 
> In that case, we will create one collector per slide and call TopDocs.merge 
> in the end. If you use search(Query, Collector), the executor service will 
> never be used.
> But there are other collectors that could work the same way as top docs 
> collectors, eg. TotalHitCountCollector. And maybe also some of our users' 
> collectors. So maybe IndexSearcher could expose a generic way to take 
> advantage of the executor service?
