Do I understand correctly that this setting in theory could be applied to the reader IW uses during merging but is not currently being applied? <indexReaderFactory name="IndexReaderFactory" class="org.apache.solr.core.StandardIndexReaderFactory"> <int name="termInfosIndexDivisor">8</int> </indexReaderFactory > I understand the tradeoffs for doing this during searching, but not the trade-offs for doing this during merging. Is the use during merging the similar to the use during searching? i.e. Some process has to look up data for a particular term as opposed to having to iterate through all the terms? (Haven't yet dug into the merging/indexing code).
