Change default value for maxMergeDocs
-------------------------------------
Key: JCR-1238
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1238
Project: Jackrabbit
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: jackrabbit-core
Reporter: Marcel Reutegger
Priority: Minor
This is actually a left over from the time before JCR-197 was implemented. Back
then index merges were performed with the client thread and would hold up
execution for a long time if a large number of nodes were merged. The default
value for maxMergeDocs limited this to 100'000 nodes, resulting in a couple of
seconds for the merge operation.
This default value does not make sense anymore because index merges are
performed in a background thread and may take a long time without an effect on
regular workspace operations. If a workspace grows large it may cause
performance degradation because the number of index segments increases linearly
when there are more than 100'000 nodes.
I propose to set the new default to Integer.MAX_VALUE
