Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-5578:
--------------------------------------------
Ahh, I see. So those bytes just grow and grow with each bulk merge but are
otherwise ignored / have no effect. Wild.
Maybe we can somehow assert that the length in the metadata "matches" the
expected length on the last doc.
> 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.
