Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-753:
-------------------------------------

Brad, one possible difference is the number of threads we tested with.
I tested single-threaded (nThreads=1) to see what kind of slowdown a single 
query might see.

A normal production  system shouldn't see 200 concurrent running search threads 
unless it's just about to fall over, or unless it's one of those massive 
multi-core systems.  After you pass a certain amount of parallelism, NIO can 
help.

> As suggested by Doug, we could use NIO pread to avoid synchronization on the 
> underlying file.
> This could mitigate any MT performance drop caused by reducing the number of 
> files in the index format.
