if index is updated continuously then in some moment we will have one or
more segments in index that have all documents deleted.
As long as deleting happens in IndexReader can we delete such 'empty'
segments in IndexReader.close()?

Optimizing is also solution but described approach can save a lot of
space and time needed to completely rewrite huge index...

As long a
followup:
in SegmentReader.doCommit()
we can add check
if (deletedDocs.count()==deletedDocs.size()) {
//delete this segment
}
deleting segment can be done by code that is contained in
IndexWriter.deleteSegments(Vector segments) method.
Any thoughts about some refactoring to allow SegmentR
