Scott, forgive the impromptu nature of this, but couldn't help but notice that you guys have a Lucene Directory impl to a SQL Server db.
Would you mind commenting on this stackoverflow topic? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10815206/implement-lucene-on-existing-net-sql-server-stack-with-multiple-webservers Brad Allan -----Original Message----- From: Scott Baldwin [mailto:s.bald...@qsr.com.au] Sent: 31 May 2012 08:13 To: lucene-net-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: RE: Lucene upgrade causes significant slow down Hi again all, can someone just confirm or deny the possibility that upgrading from 2.4.1 to 2.9.2 may cause a significant increase in the size of the index when re-indexed? We are seeing significant index size increases for indexes in some cases (not all).

The Files tab will show what the different files are used for, and which ones belong to old commits and can be removed.
