Hi,

I actually don't follow your change, because after "but changing it to" line 
the only different thing I see is the doc.add(dateField) call, which you didn't 
list before "but changing it to".

Also, if I understood Uwe correctly, he was suggesting reusing NumericField 
instances, which means "new NumericField("date")" should exist and be called 
for only *once* in your code.  The same for Document instances.  GC threads 
will thank you and Uwe for this change.

thank you very much for your answers. I've done Document

NumericField reuse like this:

,but changing it to:

Document doc

NumericField dateField = new 
> NumericField("date");
doc.add(dateField);

for each

dateField.setLongValue(Long.parseLong(DateTools.dateToString(date),

Thanks again,
