Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-2159:
------------------------------------

This looks like a nice tool. But all it does is create multiple copies of the 
same segment(s) right? So what exactly do you want to test with it? What 
worries me is that we'll be multiplying the lexicon, posting lists, statistics 
etc., therefore I'm not sure how reliable the tests will be (whatever they 
are), except for measuring things related to large number of segments (like 
merge performance). Am I right?

I also think this class better fits in benchmark rather than misc, as it's 
really for perf. testing/measurements and not as a generic utility ... You can 
create a Task out if it, like ExpandIndexTask which one can include in his 
algorithm.

> Sometimes it is useful to take a small-ish index and expand it into a large 
> index with K segments for perf/stress testing. 
> This tool does that. See attached class.
