Hi Shai and Mike,

Testing the TieredMP on our large indexes has been on my todo list since I read 
Mikes blog post
http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2011/02/visualizing-lucenes-segment-merges.html.

If you port it to the 3.x branch Shai, I'll be more than happy to test it with 
our very large (300GB+) indexes.  Besides being able to set the max merged 
segment size, I'm especially interested in using the  maxSegmentsPerTier 
parameter.

>From Mike's blog post:
" ...maxSegmentsPerTier that lets you set the allowed width (number of 
segments) of each stair in the staircase. This is nice because it decouples how 
many segments to merge at a time from how wide the staircase can be."

I think it should be an easy port...
