Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-2387:
---------------------------------------

As Tokenizers are reused, the analyzer holds also a reference to the last used 
Reader. The easy fix would be to unset the Reader in Tokenizer.close(). If this 
is the case for you, that may be easy to do. So Tokenizer.close() looks like 
this:

{code}
/** By default, closes the input Reader. */
@Override
public void close() throws IOException {
    input.close();
    input = null; // <-- new!
}
{code}

> IndexWriter retains references to Readers used in Fields (memory leak)

> As described in [1] IndexWriter retains references to Reader used in Fields 
> and that can lead to big memory leaks when using tika's ParsingReaders (as 
> those can take 1MB per ParsingReader). 
> [2] shows a screenshot of the reference chain to the Reader from the 
> IndexWriter taken with Eclipse MAT (Memory Analysis Tool) . The chain is the 
> following:
> IndexWriter -> DocumentsWriter -> DocumentsWriterThreadState -> 
> DocFieldProcessorPerThread  -> DocFieldProcessorPerField -> Fieldable -> 
> Field (fieldsData)
