That''s a pretty low number of documents for auto complete. It means that when getting to 850,000 documents, you will create 8500 segments, and that's not counting merges.
How big are your documents? I just created an 850,000 document (and a 3.5 m doc index) with tiny documents (id and title), and they deleted quickly (17 milliseconds). Maybe if you post your delete code? Are you doing anything else (like commit/optimize?)
