I think we should focus on testing where the limits are and what might
cause the limits.
Let's get out of this fog :-)

In fact we must accept all vetos by any committer as a veto, for a
change to Lucene's source code, regardless of that committer's
reasoning. This is the power of Apache's model.
Of course we all can and will work together to convince one another
(this is where the scientifically motivated part comes in) to change
our votes, one way or another.

+1, if the current implementation really does not scale / needs more
and more RAM for merging, let's understand what's going on here,
first, before increasing limits. I rescind my hasty +1 for now!

Ok, so what should we do then?
This space is moving fast, and in my opinion we should act fast to
release and guarantee we attract as many users as possible.
At the same time I am not saying we should proceed blind, if
there's concrete evidence for setting a limit rather than another,
or that a certain limit is detrimental to the project, I think
that veto should be valid.
We shouldn't accept weakly/not scientifically motivated vetos
anyway right?
The problem I see is that more than voting we should first decide
this limit and I don't know how we can operate.
I am imagining like a poll where each entry is a limit +
motivation and PMCs maybe vote/add entries?
Did anything similar happen in the past? How was the current limit
added?

Technically, a vote thread won't help much if there's no full
consensus - a single veto will make the patch unacceptable for
merging.
