My guess is you are using the same reader both for searching and
deleting.
The Hits class buffers the first 100 hits, and when you go beyond that,
it reruns the query to get more hits.
If you use the same reader, the searcher probably doesn't return the
same results the second time.
If different
Try using a different reader to delete the documents.
Hits can re-execute a query, and if the searcher you are using is
sharing the reader you are deleting with, it's like changing a list
you are iterating over (fewer hits will be found the next time the
query is executed).
