Hi Tom,
This looks fine. Personally, I would just reopen the index with
:create => true rather than deleting all the documents but it should
still work. I have no idea why stale documents would be remaining in
the index. Do you have more than one process writing to the index? Can
you narrow this behaviour down to a simple test case?
Cheers,
Dave
