Ying Andrews commented on LUCENE-4503:
--------------------------------------

Thanks for pointing it out, Robert.

In the application I worked on, we had to support a mix of local and remote 
searchers. Due to the large scale and heterogeneous nature of our  systems we 
had to be able to search anything that implements "Searchable".  We also had to 
take advantage of ParallelMultiSearcher to boost the performance. In a special 
case we had a ParallelMultiSearcher consisted of a group of local file indexes, 
a group of remote searchers whose data may come further from other remote 
searchers (kind like a tree) and one searcher that gets data from a SolrServer 
over the network. Therefore we had to adopt MultiSearcher instead of 
MultiReader strategy. We recently added MoreLikeThis feature into our 
heterogenous system. As you can see MultiReader is not an option in our 
environment. The links below roughly explains my situation.  Thank you.
