Erick Erickson commented on LUCENE-8003:
----------------------------------------
Straw-man statement for discussion: If we implement the changes in LUCENE-7976
then setting max segment size to unlimited and tuning how aggressively segments
are merged based on % deleted documents, then this wouldn't be necessary.
> deprecate forceMerge/optimize and create forceMergeAndFreeze
> ------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: LUCENE-8003
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8003
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Erick Erickson
>
> Spinoff from LUCENE-7976
> Part of that discussion surfaced the idea that optimize/forceMerge is being
> discouraged, but the use-cases for forceMerge still need to be supported.
> Those use cases make sense when an index changes rarely.
> This JIRA is to explore what that would look like.
