mergeFactor interaction in master/slaves

Hey all,
I was wondering - when running Solr in a master/slaves setup using the 1.3
snap* scripts,
does the slaves' solrconfig.xml mergeFactor value make any difference? as
far as I would assume,
the mergeFactor specified in the master solrconfig.xml dictates the format
of the index and then the slaves simply pull that and run from. is that
correct?

Thanks,
-Chak

Right - the merge factor would only have an effect if you added docs to 
the slaves - otherwise you just get a copy of the master index.
