OptionMINISEGMENT_PREMERGE_MIN_FILES_WHEN_IDLE
Description Minimum number of mini segments that must go into a merge, for idle datasources.
Introduced Version1.173.0
Default4 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.
