Thanks dor the input. 1. While the process is running, I do see the index files growing on disk and the time stamps changing. Should I see a change in size right after killing the process, is that what you mean ? 2. Yes, same directory is being used for indexing and search. 3. Didn't try Luke, good idea. Though I wonder, the same code runs well on Windows.
