> Shard splitting does not currently have a way to automatically take into 
> account the actual distribution (number of documents) in each hash bucket 
> created by using compositeId hashing.
> We should probably add a parameter *splitByPrefix* to the *SPLITSHARD* 
> command that would look at the number of docs sharing each compositeId prefix 
> and use that to create roughly equal sized buckets by document count rather 
> than just assuming an equal distribution across the entire hash range.
> Like normal shard splitting, we should bias against splitting within hash 
> buckets unless necessary (since that leads to larger query fanout.) . Perhaps 
> this warrants a parameter that would control how much of a size mismatch is 
> tolerable before resorting to splitting within a bucket. 
> *allowedSizeDifference*?
> To more quickly calculate the number of docs in each bucket, we could index 
> the prefix in a different field.  Iterating over the terms for this field 
> would quickly give us the number of docs in each (i.e lucene keeps track of 
> the doc count for each term already.)  Perhaps the implementation could be a 
> flag on the *id* field... something like *indexPrefixes* and poly-fields that 
> would cause the indexing to be automatically done and alleviate having to 
> pass in an additional field during indexing and during the call to 
> *SPLITSHARD*.  This whole part is an optimization though and could be split 
> off into its own issue if desired.
