> The files in the slave's index is not removed even after they are removed from master.
> The temp directories named index.xxxxxxx are not removed after use
> The problem is that when we do a commit on the slave after replication is done. The commit does not re-open the IndexWriter. Therefore, the deletion policy does not take affect and older files are left as is. This can keep on building up. The only solution is to re-open the index writer.
