I believe in lucene at least deleting documents only marks them for deletion. The actual delete happens only after closing the IndexReader. Not sure about Solr
Closing an IndexReader only flushes the list of deleted docids to the index... it doesn't actually delete them. Deletions only happen when the deleted docs segment is involved in a merge, or when an optimize is done (which is a merge of all segments). -Yonik
