If every doc in a segment is deleted, when does the segment go away? Without me having to dig too deep, I was hoping someone could help me prepare for this eventuality. I have an index that grows infinitely. Old docs are deleted each day just before new docs for that day are added. If I set MaxMergeDocs to some number, say 1 million, and the segment has 1 million docs in it, and every doc in that segment is deleted, will the segment ever be deleted? If not, how difficult would it be to add some type of trigger to detect this "all deleted in segment" condition so lucene could remove the huge segment to free disk space. I'm concerned the segment will never be deleted.
