-------------------------------------------------------------
+1 to not change the default in CMS, and commit jdocs, but I have two minor
comments: (1) maybe change "lower than the default of 8" to "lower than the
default of \{@value ...\}"? (2) instead of {{< ;=}} you can just use {{&le
;}}?

> The default value for maxMergeCount in ConcurrentMergeScheduler is 2. This
> causes problems for Solr's dataimport handler when very large imports are
> done from a JDBC source.
> What happens is that when three merge tiers are scheduled at the same time,
> the add/update thread will stop for several minutes while the largest merge
> finishes. In the meantime, the dataimporter JDBC connection to the database
> will time out, and when the add/update thread resumes, the import will fail
> because the ResultSet throws an exception. Setting maxMergeCount to 6
> eliminates this issue for virtually any size import -- although it is
> theoretically possible to have that many simultaneous merge tiers, I've never
> seen it.
> As long as maxThreads is properly set (the default value of 1 is appropriate
> for most installations), I cannot think of a really good reason that the
> default for maxMergeCount should be so low. If someone does need to strictly
> control the number of threads that get created, they can reduce the number.
> Perhaps someone with more experience knows of a really good reason to make
> this default low?
> I'm not sure what the new default number should be, but I'd like to avoid
> bikeshedding. I don't think it should be Integer.MAX_VALUE.
