Stand-alone machine with multiple Solr cores. No replication.

Disk space.

That's what I thought.

There's no DIH, but there is a custom app that submit docs
for indexing via SolrJ. Supposedly, Solr logs were not showing
any updates over night, so the assumption was that no new docs
were added.

I'd write it off as a user error, but wanted to double check with
the community that no other internal Solr/Lucene task can change the index
file size in the absence of submits.
