[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-6166) Deletions alone never trigger merges

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6166?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14269160#comment-14269160 ]

---------------------------------------

Nice :-) I think that reaches back from days, where MergePolicy never took deletes into account. Thanks for fixing!

> If an app has an old index and only does deletions against it, we seem to never trigger a merge, so deletions are never reclaimed in this case.
