Hi All, I just upgraded my application to use lucene 2.2. Prior to this, I was using lucene 1.9.1 and the addDocument method in the IndexWriter used to keep merging smaller segments while adding new documents depending on the mergeFactor. I was using the default mergeFactor settings. But after the upgrade, when I add documents, every time it is creating a new segment and not merging the older ones. Within 2 hours of running, it had created over 1000 segments. I verified the IndexWriter in the new source and it seemed to me that there is no change to the default values.
Has anything else changed that would affect the IndexWriter.addDocumentbehaviour? Can someone shed some light on this. Thanks, Harini
