Hi, Sometimes when the user does a search on the same term at the same time, there is a delay in the search and the memory used considerably goes high. I was going through the lucene user list and saw this discussion about race condition. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-user/38753?search_string=race%20condition What is the correct approach? Has it been fixed in the nightly builds and if yes, can anyone please point me as to which classes should I update to fix it. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks, -Kalpesh
