Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1879:
--------------------------------------------

I like the ParallelWriter (index slices) approach!

It sounds quite feasible and more "direct" in how the PW controls each
sub writer.  It should be as simple as setting null merge
policy/scheduler on the subs would mean they do no merging themselves,
but then the PW invokes their .merge methods to explicitly merge at
the right times.  Vs the current approach that makes "faker" merge
policy/scheduler (I think?).

Some of this will require IW to open up some APIs -- eg making docID
assignment a separate method call.  Likely many of these will just be
protected APIs w/in IW.
