Any adivice on this. I am closing the reader when not in use. But still /proc/<processid>/fd shows many files as (deleted). What are other things i need to look in to.

I tried testing explicitly not closing the reader and found that the file is not actually deleted and it remains in the disk. I remeber reading this information. In my case, readers and searchers are closed and the files are not existing in disk but /proc shows many fds with (deleted).
