> One big performance problem with IndexWriter.addIndexes() is that it has to 
> optimize the index both before and after adding the segments.  When you have 
> a very large index, to which you are adding batches of small updates, these 
> calls to optimize make using addIndexes() impossible.  It makes parallel 
> updates very frustrating.
> Here is an optimized function that helps out by calling mergeSegments only on 
> the newly added documents.  It will try to avoid calling mergeSegments until 
> the end, unless you're adding a lot of documents at once.
> I also have an extensive unit test that verifies that this function works 
> correctly if people are interested.  I gave it a different name because it 
> has very different performance characteristics which can make querying take 
> longer.
