IndexWriter.deleteDocuments(Term) only deletes one at a time

[Edward W. Rouse]

Below is the relevant portion of the code were this occurs. I have a test
index with 100 Documents that all have 1 Term that is the same across all
Documents. When I run this code using that Term and the common value, it
only deletes one document. Every time I rerun the code with the same values
it deletes another one. Am I doing something wrong? I can't figure out why
it doesn't delete them all with one call to this code.

this.getWriter(indexName).deleteDocuments(this.createIdTerm(id));
this.getWriter(indexName).commit();


  private IndexWriter getWriter(String index) throws IOException
  {
    if(writers.containsKey(index))
    {
      return writers.get(index);
    }
    else
    {
      return addWriter(index);
    }
  }

  private Term createIdTerm(String id)
  {
    return new Term(Constants.DEFAULT_ID_FIELD, id);
  }

  public IndexWriterConfig getWriterConfig()
  {
    if(writerConfig == null)
    {
      Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(Version.LUCENE_36);
      writerConfig = new IndexWriterConfig(Version.LUCENE_36, analyzer);
    }
    return writerConfig;
  }

  private IndexWriter addWriter(String index) throws IOException
  {
    if(writers.containsKey(index))
    {
      return writers.get(index);
    }
    else
    {
      File f = new File(Constants.ROOT_DIR + index);
      FSDirectory d = FSDirectory.open(f);
      IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(d, getWriterConfig());
      writers.put(index, writer);
      return writer;
    }
  }
