If I reload the core, then the extra searcher disappears.  The problem
persists after doing soft commits on the core, so a commit doesn't
help.  If I manually swap cores rather than doing it as part of a full
index rebuild, this problem does not occur, which is very confusing.

The problem happened on an index that has the custom components defined,
but nothing in the index data actually triggers their use.  I can try
removing those components completely and rebuilding that index again.

When it was running on Java 8, I grabbed a heap dump, but there's a bug
in Eclipse MAT that prevents opening heap dumps created by Java 8, so I
restarted with Java 7 and found the same problem after rebuilding the
index.  Now I have a heap dump that I can open in the Eclipse
MemoryAnalyzer.  If anyone knows how to find these Searcher objects in
the MAT, I would appreciate knowing.  The object I am currently looking
for says "Searcher@3cd076ad[ai-0build] main" in the admin UI.  There
does not appear to be an object in the source code called "Searcher" so
the Plugins/Stats page in the UI seems to be not reporting true object
names.  I think that's something that needs to be fixed.

Thanks,
Shawn
