Hi Jake

We got to the bottom of it. Turned out to be a status page that was opening the reader to obtain docCount but not closing it.Thanks for your help!

Ok. The number of file handles left open is increasing rapidly. For instance, 4200 file handles were left open by Lucene 2.9.1 over a period of 16 min. You can see in the attached snapshot a picture from JPicus showing the file handles that are left open. These index files are deleted but the OS still holds references to them. Could it be that Lucene merge threads are not closing files correctly before they are deleted? More than likely, it is an error with our code, but where? Our LuceneIndex wrapper class is attached. If I set the max file OS count to a low figure, my application stops in its track, so this is definitely a critical issue that must be resolved.
