   1splitIndex.maxPercentChange::
   2        When the split index feature is used, this specifies the
   3        percent of entries the split index can contain compared to the
   4        total number of entries in both the split index and the shared
   5        index before a new shared index is written.
   6        The value should be between 0 and 100. If the value is 0 then
   7        a new shared index is always written, if it is 100 a new
   8        shared index is never written.
   9        By default the value is 20, so a new shared index is written
  10        if the number of entries in the split index would be greater
  11        than 20 percent of the total number of entries.

  14splitIndex.sharedIndexExpire::
  15        When the split index feature is used, shared index files that
  16        were not modified since the time this variable specifies will
  17        be removed when a new shared index file is created. The value
  18        "now" expires all entries immediately, and "never" suppresses
  19        expiration altogether.
  20        The default value is "2.weeks.ago".
  21        Note that a shared index file is considered modified (for the
  22        purpose of expiration) each time a new split-index file is
  23        either created based on it or read from it.
