we should only call MP if we merge otherwise it's not a MP anymore?

I totally agree with this. Put the one used at flush in FlushPolicy? :)
> Don't call MergePolicy / IndexWriter during DWPT Flush

> We currently consult the indexwriter -> merge policy to decide if we need to
> write CFS or not which is bad in many ways.
> - we should call mergepolicy only during merges
> - we should never sync on IW during DWPT flush
> - we should be able to make the decision if we need to write CFS or not
> before flush, ie. we could write parts of the flush directly to CFS or even
> start writing stored fields directly.
> - in the NRT case it might make sense to write all flushes to CFS to minimize
> filedescriptors independent of the index size.
> I wonder if we can use a simple boolean for this in the IWC and get away with
> not consulting merge policy. This would simplify concurrency a lot here
> already.
