Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-3918:
------------------------------------
Well, in theory, one could do the following:
* Let segments be flushed unsorted
* During merge, open an AtomicReader which detects that it's an unsorted
segment and build the old2New[], reading the documents in the right order
* Provide his own SegmentMerger which doesn't append seg2 after seg1, but
rather does a true "merge" of the two, by comparing the sort-by-value of each
document
But that's all in theory, none of the API exist today. Also, even if you did
that, your index would still be unsorted, because a sorted segment says nothing
about the total sort order of the index...
