few times in the past due to which the indexing had got interrupted. This
has resulted in a lot of .fnm, .fdt,.tmp files which don't get removed even
through optimizing the index. We have data for last 90 days in

Hi All,
I have a large lucene index of size 60G. We have had Out Of Memory
issues a

This
has resulted in a lot of .fnm, .fdt,.tmp files which don'
etable, it is should be
safe to delete these files.
Please backup your data before testing.

What version of Lucene are you using?
As of 2.1, Lucene should remove such partially created files
immediately on hitting the OOM exception, and if somehow it failed to
do that (eg if JVM had crashed or machine running JVM crashed, etc) it
should then remove them the next time a writer is created
