Hmm then I'm a bit baffled again. Because, each of your "by month" indexes presumably has a unique subset of terms for the "date_doc" field? Meaning, a given "by month" index will have all date_doc corresponding to that month, and a different "by month" index would presumably have no overlap in the terms for the date_doc field.
I'm baffled because I'd expect in such a case for the performance an optimized index vs 72-sub-index MultiReader to be closer, on 2.9. Hmm.
