Also, is it worth considering a couple of things:
1. Do a build version release prior to committing (i.e. 2.2.1) that
way we could isolate this change and do a separate release to 2.3. I
don't want to do releases just for the sake of releases, but I think
we should at least prepare people that the next release (i.e. the one
containing 843) has a significant change. I don't think this patch
warrants a major revision tick, but it does make sense to have people
really scrutinize it and to have them know that there are significant
gains to be had.
2. or, at a minimum, do a tag of the trunk right before committing.
I just find explicit tags make it easier to rollback or compare diffs
if need be
Note these suggestions are by no means a judgment of the quality of
the patch, just some precautions before such a big change.

Hi,
I'd like to commit LUCENE-843.
The patch has gone through a number of iterations but the final
version that's there now (take9) is quite a bit cleaner & simpler
than
the ones leading up to it and I believe ready.
It provides solid indexing performance gains (between 2X-8X), but, it
is somewhat more complex than the current "single doc per segment"
approach and it does introduce a change to the index format (only
when
autoCommit=false) whereby multiple segments can share a single set of
term vector & stored fields files.
+0 for now, I will try to review tonight or tomorrow night. From
what I gather from reading the issue, etc. it sounds great and you
and others have put a lot of hard work into it. Also, from some
benchmarking I have done, it seems to sit well with the notion of
optimizing merge factor, etc. based on the amount of memory available.
