Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-5693:
-----------------------------------------

I really wonder if this issue matters. The usecase of this when you update a 
document while it's still in ram and to me this seems really a corner case. I 
think we should just stick with the corner case and not complicate the code if 
possible? If it makes things cleaner I am ok with it but please don't 
complicate things for this corner case...

> When we flush a new segment, sometimes some documents are "born deleted", 
> e.g. if the app did a IW.deleteDocuments that matched some not-yet-flushed 
> documents.
> We already compute the liveDocs on flush, but then we continue (wastefully) 
> to send those known-deleted documents to all Codec parts.
> I started to implement this on LUCENE-5675 but it was too controversial.
> Also, I expect typically the number of deleted docs is 0, or small, so not 
> writing "born deleted" docs won't be much of a win for most apps.  Still it 
> seems silly to write them, consuming IO/CPU in the process, only to consume 
> more IO/CPU later for merging to re-delete them.
