New blog post about merge-on-refresh!
Hi Team,

I just published a new blog post about all the fun open-source
excitement in building Lucene's new merge-on-refresh (in 8.7.0) and
merge-on-commit features (in 8.6.0):

The full story was surprisingly complex and tricky :)

Thank you to everyone who helped!

This feature drops our (Amazon product search) average per-shard segment
count across our full world-wide fleet by ~25%.
