Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-3141:
------------------------------------

Creative use of google, but it does't always add up.  Just looking randomly at 
a couple:

The vufind reference oddly states that you should optimize after updating, but 
it also states:
bq. Note: Optimizing the index can take a lot of server resources, so you 
should schedule your index updates and optimizations for non-peak times when 
possible.
So you can see they have that very infrequent update model in mind, and they 
seem well aware of the cost of an optimize.

The stackoverflow is a thing asking how to automate commit and optimize and how 
often he should optimize.

And the archiveorange link mentions a guy optimizing, but it's certainly not 
clear at all that he shouldn't be....  we don't know his requirements.

Solr is at 400 downloads a day via the website (twice that many visit the 
download page... but the actual link is hard to see!).  Yes, I'll stand by 
"minority".

> Background: LUCENE-3454 renames optimize() as forceMerge(). Please read that 
> issue first.
> Now that optimize() is rarely necessary anymore, and renamed in Lucene APIs, 
> what should be done with Solr's ancient optimize command?
