Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-5578:
--------------------------------------

No it won't. Because the metadata of a block of compressed documents also 
stores the length of the compressed data, so it would stop decompressing at the 
right place. This problem is completely silent!

> Stored fields might accumulate checksums on merges

> The bulk merge operation of our stored fields format is optimized in order to 
> avoid decompressing data when not needed. In order to know the offset of the 
> end of the current block, it either consults the stored fields index, or uses 
> {{fieldsStream.length()}} for the last chunk.
> However, we just added checksums at the end of index files, so it might 
> currently copy the current checksum in addition to the last chunk, and then 
> write a new checksum.
