 Review comment:
   so my understanding is that, this is useful in case when, on realtime 
process, very small subset of columns/data in the intermediate persisted 
segments is being read from queries.
   some commentary in the code along those lines would be great.
   overall, this patch looks useful to me.
   
   "swap after merge" is further useful to reduce inode count, but the swap 
would be tricky to implement as there might be queries underway on the indexes 
just merged.
   
   I think O_DIRECT is whole other beast and would require significant 
performance regression testing in this case.
