[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-7733) remove/rename "optimize" references in the UI.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7733?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14604762#comment-14604762 ] 

Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-7733:
------------------------------------

+1.  I also think that the red color when it's not optimized tends to reinforce the notion that the index is in a "bad" state that the user must correct.

I still optimize my indexes on a relatively infrequent basis, and would hate to lose the ability to do that, but it doesn't belong in the admin UI.  Sometimes the performance consequences from clicking that optimize button are severe.  With a large enough SolrCloud installation, the performance impact from a seemingly innocent button click could last for hours.

> Since optimizing indexes is kind of a special circumstance thing, what do we think about removing (or renaming) optimize-related stuff on the core admin and core overview pages? The "optimize" button is already gone from the core admin screen (was this intentional?).
> My personal feeling is that we should remove this entirely as it's too easy to think "Of course I want my index optimized" and "look, this screen says my index isn't optimized, that must mean I should optimize it".
> The core admin screen and the core overview page both have an "optimized" checkmark, I propose just removing it from the "overview" page and on the "core admin" page changing it to "Segment Count #". NOTE: the "overview" page already has a "Segment Count" entry.
