msfroh opened a new pull request #2088: URL: https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/pull/2088
FieldNumbers.clear() is called from IndexWriter.deleteAll(), which is supposed to completely reset the state of the index. This includes clearing all known fields. Prior to this change, it would allocate progressively higher field numbers, which results in larger and larger arrays for FieldInfos.byNumber, effectively "leaking" field numbers every time deleteAll() is called. <!-- _(If you are a project committer then you may remove some/all of the following template.)_ Before creating a pull request, please file an issue in the ASF Jira system for Lucene or Solr: * https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/LUCENE * https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/SOLR You will need to create an account in Jira in order to create an issue. The title of the PR should reference the Jira issue number in the form: * LUCENE-####: <short description of problem or changes> * SOLR-####: <short description of problem or changes> LUCENE and SOLR must be fully capitalized. A short description helps people scanning pull requests for items they can work on. Properly referencing the issue in the title ensures that Jira is correctly updated with code review comments and commits. --> # Description If you run a loop that repeatedly adds documents to an IndexWriter and calls deleteAll, new fields will be given progressively higher index numbers. Since these index numbers are reflected in the size of the FieldInfos.byNumber array, this is effectively a memory leak. # Solution Reset lowestUnassignedFieldNumber to -1 when FieldNumbers.clear() is called (resetting the state to that of a newly-created FieldNumbers instance). # Tests Added a unit test to confirm that after calling clear(), the next field is given number 0. # Checklist Please review the following and check all that apply: - [x] I have reviewed the guidelines for [How to Contribute](https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute) and my code conforms to the standards described there to the best of my ability. - [x] I have created a Jira issue and added the issue ID to my pull request title. - [x] I have given Solr maintainers [access](https://help.github.com/en/articles/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork) to contribute to my PR branch.
