Is it by design. The older API (2.4) does not have this problem. Lets say if I have 100 updates or so.. then it will create 100 versions of those files in the index. This would increase the number of files in the index directory and might run into some file issues?
It would be good to just have the following instead: _100.cfe _100.cfs _100.csi segments.gen segments_1 why are the older files in the index folder? Are they used for anything? BTW,can I use any other option to just overwrite the existing files in the index directory such that there are only fewer files in the index directory.
