Adding a function to IndexWriter that returns
true
if there are merges running andfalse
otherwise, this is useful for applications that have multiple indices that may want to shut down idle writers to conserve memory.This is a cleaner solution to that idle index use case than running
wait_merging_threads
since calling that blocks until the merges are done while keeping the index locked, This increases latency (sometimes considerably so depending on the merge size) if you need to create a new writer because the index is no longer idle.
