In my opinion, "true" _is_ auto, which is a way to say "I trust you to do the right thing, just re-split the index when it makes sense", "no" is disabled of course. If the user wants to be specific, just write "10" or some other percentage.(and either 0 or 100 would mean enable split-index but do not re-split automatically, let _me_ do it when I want it) -- Duy
