Tom,
Not sure which one would be better for you. It would be easy for you
to test that, though. My guess would be that a single index will work
better.
To merge indices, create a new instance of FSDirectory.
Directory dir = new FSDirectory("/path/to/new/index");
Then create an array of your 27 indices (something like the above, but
add it to an array of Directory[] type, and use a different path for
each of your 27 dirs in the ctor above) and pass it to addIndexes
method, like this:
dir.addIndexes(yourDirectoryArray);
The 'dir' is the 'dir' from above.
