OK. Optimize finally returned, so I suppose something was happening in the background, but I'm still seeing over 6500 segments. Even after setting max_num_segments=5. Does this seem right? Queries are a little faster (350-400ms) but still not great. Bigdesk is still showing a fair amount of file IO.
