Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3454:
-------------------------------------

Otis: thats a good point, currently optimize is just a "request", we should 
probably figure out what it "should be".

Should it be collapseSegments, which is a well-defined request without a cool 
sounding name?

Or, should it be <something else>, which gives you a more optimal configuration 
for search performance... (i still think optimize is a bad name even for this)? 
Personally i suspect its going to be hard to support this case, e.g. you would 
really need to know things like, if the user has executionService set on the 
IndexSearcher and how big the threadpool is and things like that to make an 
'optimal' configuration... and we don't have a nice way of knowing that 
information today.
