Review comment:
       Hmm, why only one merge?  If enough concurrent threads are indexing, 
there could be many small segments written during `commit`.

Review comment:
       Actually, I was confused here -- since this merge policy is only picking 
(cheap) merges during commit, it is not as dangerous as I thought.  I had 
thought it was doing this in general (for natural and forced merges too).

Review comment:
       But it is important for a merge policy to favor merging segments with 
many deletions?  Or, are you thinking that on commit the newly flushed segments 
will not have many deletions typically so why bother?  I think it would be 
simpler / less risky to just use the existing `MergePolicy.size`?

Review comment:
       Let's not propagate the bad naming?  Just because an existing method is 
poorly named doesn't mean we should name new methods poorly too :)  Maybe open 
an issue to deprecate/rename `MergePolicy.size`?
   
   Also, why not just use `MergePolicy.size` instead of adding a new dangerous 
method?

Review comment:
       Could we rename this to `MergeOnCommitMergePolicy` perhaps?
