Thanks for the answer, but I have isolated the cycle inside a loop on a
static void main (String args[]) Class to test this issue.In this case there
were no classes referencing the IndexSercher and the problem still happened.

You may not have a memory leak at all. It could just be garbage
waiting to be collected. I am fairly certain there are no "memory
leaks" in the current Lucene code base (outside of the ThreadLocal
issue).

A simple way to verify this would be to add -Xmx16m on the command
line. If there were a memory leak then it will eventually fail with
an OOM.

If there is a memory leak, then it is probably because your code is
holding on to IndexReader references in some static var or map.
