Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-2328:
------------------------------------
bq. Trying to sync a file that hasn't yet been closed will be undefined
Can we avoid 'undefined'? We have an issue open about SegmentInfos.fileLength()
not clearly defined and it causes confusion. If it's undefined, then someone
might attempt to call sync before he closes the file, and only then close ...
can we throw an exception in that case?
We can have close(), sync() and closeAndSync(). Would the latter make sense?
I prefer if the API will be explicit,, and I think that throwing an exception
(StillOpenException?) if sync() is called before close() is very explicit, and
reasonable if accompanied by a proper jdoc.

> Key: LUCENE-2328
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2328
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Index
> Affects Versions: 2.9.1, 2.9.2, 3.0, 3.0.1
> Environment: all
> Reporter: Gregor Kaczor
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.1

> Original Estimate: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 1h

> I am running into a strange OutOfMemoryError. My small test application does
> index and delete some few files. This is repeated for 60k times. Optimization
> is run from every 2k times a file is indexed. Index size is 50KB. I did
> analyze
> the HeapDumpFile and realized that IndexWriter.synced field occupied more than
> half of the heap. That field is a private HashSet without a getter. Its task
> is
> to hold files which have been synced already.
> There are two calls to addAll and one call to add on synced but no remove or
> clear throughout the lifecycle of the IndexWriter instance.
> According to the Eclipse Memory Analyzer synced contains 32618 entries which
> look like file names "_e065_1.del" or "_e067.cfs"
> The index directory contains 10 files only.
> I guess synced is holding obsolete data
