I am studying a solution which uses lucene replicator components (I'm on lucene 4.10.4) and I've found some documentation on the javadoc and in some blog posts.
When my IndexWriter commits it produces a Revision which is sent to the ReplicationClient. To be sure of keeping data untill the replica is finished I've set the SnapshotDeletionPolicy for my IndexWriter. Anyway I am observing the growth of the master index while the replica remains much smaller. Should I explicity release my Revision? Which is the right moment to do it? Thanks, Riccardo
