Yes. Looks good to me. It is most effiecient to batch deletions and insertions, i.e., perform a bunch of deletions on a single IndexReader, close it, then perform a bunch of insertions on a single IndexWriter. Usually the IndexReader that you do the deletions on is different than the one other threads are simultaneously using for searching, since if you close a reader while a search is underway it will crash the search. > Regarding writers, is it ok to share a single IndexWriter > with multiple > writers, i.e., I have one writer adding a document and then I > get another request for doc upload.
