-------------------------------------
Mike, fyi it looks like we are hung again in hudson:

Not sure if its the same deadlock you found.

> While running optimize on a large index, I've noticed several things that got
> me to read CMS code more carefully, and find these issues:
> * CMS may hold onto a merge if maxMergeCount is hit. That results in the
> MergeThreads taking merges from the IndexWriter until they are exhausted, and
> only then that blocked merge will run. I think it's unnecessary that that
> merge will be blocked.
> * CMS sorts merges by segments size, doc-based and not bytes-based. Since the
> default MP is LogByteSizeMP, and I hardly believe people care about doc-based
> size segments anymore, I think we should switch the default impl. There are
> two ways to make it extensible, if we want:
> ** Have an overridable member/method in CMS that you can extend and override
> - easy.
> ** Have OneMerge be comparable and let the MP determine the order (e.g. by
> bytes, docs, calibrate deletes etc.). Better, but will need to tap into
> several places in the code, so more risky and complicated.
> On the go, I'd like to add some documentation to CMS - it's not very easy to
> read and follow.
> I'll work on a patch.
