Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3218:
-------------------------------------

Anyone have opinions on 3.x? 

I think it might be wise to think about pulling these CFS changes (LUCENE-3201, 
too) back from 3.x and instead
give things some time to settle in trunk?

We could always then backport at a later release, but we got lucky here that we 
still haven't released anything.

> Currently CFS is created once all files are written during a flush / merge. 
> Once on disk the files are copied into the CFS format which is basically a 
> unnecessary for some of the files. We can at any time write at least one file 
> directly into the CFS which can save a reasonable amount of IO. For instance 
> stored fields could be written directly during indexing and during a Codec 
> Flush one of the written files can be appended directly. This optimization is 
> a nice sideeffect for lucene indexing itself but more important for DocValues 
> and LUCENE-3216 we could transparently pack per field files into a single 
> file only for docvalues without changing any code once LUCENE-3216 is 
> resolved.
