Sasha, Do you have postCommit or postOptimize hooks enabled? Are you sending commits or have autoCommit on?
My suggestions: - comment out post* hooks - do not send a commit until you are done (or you can just optimize at the end) - disable autoCommit If there is anything else that could trigger searcher warming, I can't think of it at the moment. Let us know if the above eliminates the problem.
