   This makes sense to me, but I'm a little confused about how you described 
the test condition:
   
   > baseline: main branch where we unset RAMBufferSizeMB, which defaults to 
16Mb with force merge at the end of indexing.
   
   I'm not sure what unset means? I guess it goes to the default 16MB, but I 
assume you must be doing the same in the other test condition? Is there some 
difference in how the IndexWriter is configured between the two conditions? Or 
maybe I'm misunderstanding and you are allowing the entire set of vectors to 
buffer in RAM (in the baseline case)? But if that's the case the results are 
truly astounding! Actually I would like  to understand the difference between 
that case, and buffering on disk. Do we pay any penalty for buffering on disk? 
how much?
