Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2280:
--------------------------------------------

>From the log I can see that you run fine for a long time, opening IW,
indexing a few docs, optimizing, then closing.  Then suddenly the
exceptions start happening on many (but not all) merges, and, merges
involving different segments.  JRE bug seems most likely I guess...

Since you see this only on Windows (not eg on Linux), I think this is
likely not a bug in Lucene but rather something particular about your
Windows env -- virus checker maybe?  Is there anything in the Windows
events log that correlate to when the exceptions start?

Or it could be a JRE bug -- you really should try on different (Sun)
JRE.
