I believe that the files are actually deleted from lucene when the optimize is run.

If I am using lucene (daily build from ~ a month ago or so) on windows - and when I merge two indexes together, I get a number of .cfs files noted in my 'deleteable' file - but they never seem to actually be deleted by lucene. When does lucene try to delete these files - does it ever work on windows? As far as I can tell, nothing should be holding a lock on those files. Yet, even when I shut down the only jvm that is using these indexes, and then open a new one, and perform a search, they don't go away.
