So I learned that IndexReader objects must be closed immediately following a reopen. But what is the guidance after using IndexWriter.getReader()? Does one reader need closed before getting and using another, or can one use 2 or more readers simultaneously? I don't see any guidance at the following references, although there is mention that reopen() will forward back to getReader().

There used to be some sort of file descriptor cleanup. With the explicit close, the descriptor count stayed under 100. Without the explicit close, the count hit peaks around 3000 by the time 50,000 documents are added (still under our increased limit). Hopefully our problems didn't extend past leaking file descriptors by omitting the explicit close. ----- Original Message ---- From: Justin <cry...@yahoo.com> To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Sent: Thu, March 4, 2010 6:29:25 PM Subject: Re: File descriptor leak in ParallelReader.reopen() We must have been getting lucky.
