Hi Salman, Sounds like somehow you are triggering merges or optimizes. What is your mergeFactor?
Have you turned on the IndexWriter log? In solrconfig.xml <infoStream file="${solr.indexwriter.log.dir}">true</infoStream> In our case we feed the directory name as a Java property in our java startup script , but you can also hard code where you want the log written like in the current example Solr config: <infoStream file="INFOSTREAM.txt">false</infoStream> That should provide some clues. For example you can see how many segments of each level there are just before you do the commit that triggers the problem. My first guess is that you have enough segments so that adding the documents and committing triggers a cascading merge. (But this is a WAG without seeing what's in your indexwriter log) Can you also send your solrconfig so we can see your mergeFactor and ramBufferSizeMB settings?
