Eks Dev commented on LUCENE-1741:
---------------------------------

Uwe, you convinced me, I looked at the code, and indeed, no performance penalty 
for this. 

what helped me  was 1.1G... (I've tried to find maximum); Max file size is 1.4G 
... but 1.1 is just OS coincidence, no magic about it. 

I guess 512mb makes a good value, if memory is so fragmented that you cannot 
allocate 0.5G, you are definitely having some other problems around. We are 
taliking here about VM memory, and even on windows having 512Mb in block is not 
an issue (or better said, I have never seen problems with this value).

@Paul: It is misunderstanding, my "algorithm" was meant to be manual... no 
catching OOM and retry (I've burned my fingers already on catching 
RuntimeException, do only when absolutely desperate :). Uwe made this value 
user settable anyhow.  

Thanks Uwe!
