Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-3454:
-------------------------------------

And if we want to keep thinking of the complete moron, I'd make the same argument about mergeIfNeeded - the user might think these needs to be called all the time! My, it doesn't merge when needed? I better call this every couple seconds to make sure it merges when its needed! It's a ridiculous never ending path IMO.

> I think users see the name optimize and feel they must do this, because who wants a suboptimal system? but this probably just results in wasted time and resources.
> maybe rename to collapseSegments or something?
