-----------------------------------------
[~mikemccand] can you update reviewboard as well, it's way easier to review
there.
> Use multiple threads to apply deletes and DV updates

> Today, when users delete documents or apply doc values updates, IndexWriter
> buffers them up into frozen packets and then eventually uses a single thread
> (BufferedUpdatesStream.applyDeletesAndUpdates) to resolve delete/update terms
> to docids. This thread also holds IW's monitor lock, so it also blocks
> refresh, merges starting/finishing, commits, etc.
> We have heavily optimized this part of Lucene over time, e.g. LUCENE-6161,
> LUCENE-2897, LUCENE-2680, LUCENE-3342, but still, it's a single thread so it
> can't use multiple CPU cores commonly available now.
> This doesn't affect append-only usage, but for update-heavy users (me!) this
> can be a big bottleneck, and causes long stop-the-world hangs during indexing.
> I have an initial exploratory patch to make these lookups concurrent, without
> holding IW's lock, so that when a new packet of deletes is pushed, which
> happens when we flush a new segment, we immediately use that same indexing
> thread to and resolve the deletions.
> This is analogous to when we made segment flushing concurrent (LUCENE-3023),
> just for deletes and DV updates as well.
