| Option | MINISEGMENT_PREMERGE_MIN_FILES_WHEN_IDLE | |
| Description | Minimum number of mini segments that must go into a merge, for idle datasources. | |
| Introduced Version | 1.173.0 | |
| Default | 4 minisegments | |
Sets a lower limit on how many minisegments must be present
before merging into larger minisegments for idle datasources,
compared to the limit set for non-idle datasources (which is
controlled by MINISEGMENT_PREMERGE_MIN_FILES).
The merging is intended to reduce the global snapshot size.
