Hi,

because we have constant updates on our index, we can't really close the index from time to time. Therefore we decided to trigger forceMerge when the traffic is lowest, the clean up.

On our development laptops (Windows and Linux) it works as expected, but on the real Servers we have some wired behaviour.

Scenario:

We create a fresh index and populate it. This results in an index with a size of 2 GB. If we rigger forceMerge(1) and a commit() afterwards for this index, the index grows over the next 10 minutes to 6 GB and does not shrink back. During the whole process no reader is opened on the index. If I try the same stunt with the same data on my Windows Laptop, it does nothing at all and finishes after a few ms.

Any Ideas?

Technical details:
We use an MMapDirectory and the Server is a Debian7 Kernel 3.2 in a KVM. The file system is Ext4.

Thx,

Jürgen Albert.
