Bernd Fondermann commented on LUCENE-1920:
------------------------------------------

Thank you all for taking the time to review the patch.
I'm not that familiar with the inner workings of Lucene and the full (intented) 
contract of isOptimized().

Just a few observations I made by looking at Lucene's source more closely:

+ My patch was originally crafted and tested against 2.4.0-RELEASE.
However, InstantiatedIndex in TRUNK no longer throws an exception on 
non-optimized wrapped indizes, see LUCENE-1578. 
So this no longer should be a problem (although I don't know if this is tested 
well enough) and the patch can be looked at conservatively.

+ Nevertheless, I think it's releasonable (from a user's perspecitve) to expect 
a behavior like the patch is providing.

+ This is supported by ParallelReader.isOptimized() (see LUCENE-832), which is 
doing essentially the same thing like the proposed patch for MultiReader.
 So this behavior is already implemented in a similar Reader.

> The MultiReader statically returns FALSE on any isOptimized() call.
> This makes it unusable as the source index for an InstantiatedIndex, which 
> checks initially if the source index is optimized and aborts if not.
> The attached patch iterates all sub readers and returns TRUE if all of them 
> are optimized.
