Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1808:
------------------------------------

bq. Solr is maintaining a heavy weight Searcher instance

Well... IndexSearcher isn't particularly heavyweight, but Solr's implementation 
is (due to historical reasons mostly).
No one is calling it optimal - we need to move more stuff to per-segment 
caching over time.

> When IndexReader.reopen is called, old reader is not properly closed

>             Project: Solr
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: search
>    Affects Versions: 1.4

> According to Lucene documentation:
> "If the index has not changed since this instance was (re)opened, then this 
> call is a NOOP and returns this instance. Otherwise, a new instance is 
> returned. The old instance is not closed and remains usable."
> In SolrCore.java:
> if (newestSearcher != null && solrConfig.reopenReaders
>           && indexDirFile.equals(newIndexDirFile)) {
>         IndexReader currentReader = newestSearcher.get().getReader();
>         IndexReader newReader = currentReader.reopen();
>         if (newReader == currentReader) {
>           currentReader.incRef();
>         }
>         tmp = new SolrIndexSearcher(this, schema, "main", newReader, true, 
> true);
>       }
> When currentReader!=newReader, currentReader seems to be leaking.
